This book contains memories of the authors as they lived throughout the 20th century. Life for them started on small Michigan farms that lacked utilities, and ended in a very different modern world. They describe their first experiences with radios, automobiles and airplanes; and their honeymoon trip from Michigan to Washington DC in a Model A Ford at a time before a modern road system existed. The book also contains many poems from their courtship times, as well as stories in verse form that recount the adventures of youth; felling a giant perfectly balanced oak tree, taking a horse and cutter for a winter ice-fishing experience, and other memorable activities of yore.
