Uncle Martin was a man with a vivid memory and a talent for storytelling and rhyme. During the first forty years of his life, while living and caring for his parents, he absorbed facts about his ancestors and enjoyed passing those stories on when the opportunity arose. His niece now gathers those stories to share with others, both family and otherwise. A greater portion of the work covers the years of the Great Depression in the state of Kansas when Martin was growing up with his brothers and sisters.

American Know How in the Heart of It All Ohio was and remains tailor made for commerce, transportation, invention, and manufacturing. Located between Lake Erie and the Ohio River, it was perfect for canals, railways, and, ultimately, highways, which allowed coal, iron ore, and oil into industrial centers such as Cleveland, Dayton, Akron, Youngstown, and Cincinnati. These powerhouses fostered the ingenuity and practical inventiveness that made Ohio a mecca for manufacturing. Beyond heavy industry, the state also nurtured the growth of All-American goods and brands like Quaker Oats and Smucker's jellies and jams, Diamond matches and Sherwin Williams paints, the Etch-A-Sketch and Play-Doh, and many, many more. Author Conrade C. Hinds places a spotlight on dreamers and builders in the Buckeye State.
