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.

Excerpt from Memories of by-Gone Days When my husband asked me to write the foreword to this little book I was glad, for no one except the author can feel so great an interest in this as I do. His articles and pictures for the outdoor magazines have been a pleasure to both of us, and it has long been my desire to see them gathered into a volume in permanent form. In Memories of Bygone Days there is no morbid tendency to disparage present joys, but simply a wholesome retrospect. Lulled in the countless chambers of the brain Our thoughts are linked by many a hidden chain. We may make of memory a blessing or a curse, just as we will. It is a stupendous thought that we are augmenting or decreasing future pleasure by the way we spend today. The only use we have for our past is to get a future out of it. All the pleasures of today One by one soon glide away To the golden shore of sweet long ago. Happy is that man whose memories are pleasant and profitable company. Alice kimball steele.
