About the Book

This book is a nostalgic, humorous, sometimes sad, and sometimes downright funny trip into the past! The author has written these true stories from his memory in a style that transports the reader back in time to the mid 20th century. They describe a rural lifestyle that was much more simple and slow moving than today.  They tell of moral lessons imparted to children that are thought to be old-fashoned today! 

 They tell about the lives and hijinks of farm boys growing up in rural America. They tell of a time that would be lost to the age of video games, computer technology, and fast foods, if  these memories were not  brought back to life!

This is what Bill Ross has accomplished with his stories of that young group described as “Good Ole Boys”. In this book. they live again as they did more than a half century ago!

If you are having a bad day, some of  the stories in this book will lighten your mood!  Some may even change your perspective about the really important things in life! 


About the Author

Bill Ross is a retired real estate broker and corporate C.E.O. He lives with Gloria, his wife of 45 years in the beautiful Ozarks of southern Missouri. His childhood on a farm in Kansas has always been treasured memories to Bill. It seemed a shame to him that the era of those “good ole farm boys” should slip quietly into the past. He began writing those memories as a legacy for his family, then discovered how interested others were in his stories. No one is more surprised than Bill that this book has developed. “I  don't think of myself as a writer! I am just an old man with memories of a bygone era that shall never be again! I  know that you can remove a boy from the farm, but you can never remove the farm from the boy!"
