And One to Grow on - Reflections of a Maine Boyhood

When John Gould was young, a boy learned about the sea and the woods, about d geography and life. The friendly, close-knit community life and the deep family affection gave him a foundation of sound sense to last through the years ahead. You will be glad to know that once, in Maine, a boy could have this kind of childhood; and you might be envious because you did not.

About the author

Born and bred in Maine, John Gould (1908-2003) was well known for his acerbic Yankee wit. Over his life he wrote dozens of books and for an astounding sixty-two years was a regular columnist for the Christian Science Monitor. Despite his literary fame, he would always claim that he was, first, last, and always, a farmer.
