In the "thirties" in western Kansas, the Great Depression was made worse by years of drought. Robert (it was Bobby back then) was born in the middle of the DUST BOWL, so called because the winds picked huge clouds of dry dust that eventually were carried as far back as Washingtron DC. Those years were called "The Hard Times" with reason because many people lost all they had. The hardy people that lived there, in the midst of hardships found ways to make do and even have good times. Bobby, the youngest of three brothers seemed to think it was a great life and found color, humor and fun out there on the prairies of western Kansas. The scene changes as the family moves to Colorado. In the midst of successes and heartaches, Robert continues to have a zest for life as he begins to mature into manhood.
This is authentic history, related first hannd, the sometimes rough and wild of those earlier days mixed in with ordinary and family things.
FROM THE AUTHOR This, my story, is also part of the story of mid America. In western Kansas history stood still for a while. I consider it a privilege to have lived a part of that history. It is also the story a of a young man finding his way in the contemporary adult world.
