"Happy days are here again" was President Roosevelt's slogan in 1932 to quell the effects of the Great Depression. Meanwhile, half of western Oklahoma was blowing away in the Dust Bowl winds, resulting in hundreds moving west to find jobs. A few years after that, Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, and we were at war with Japan and Germany. This is the setting on a small farm in northeastern Oklahoma in which a young boy with three older brothers and a younger sister must grow into adulthood. It was a good but tough life.

Let these stories-some amusing, some sad-take you back to those times in the last century.
