"Social historians of the future, seeking material on the life of
American boys during the first few decades of the [twentieth]
century will ignore the books of Ralph Moody at their peril. . . .
[Moody] has a splendid talent for bringing the ashes of the past
into life."-Chicago Sunday Tribune * Chicago Sunday Tribune
*
"A sentimental reminiscence rich in good humor and courage, and in
Americana. It is a story simply told of a young man's
unself-pitying and successful struggle against what seem the
unsurmountable odds of dire poverty and desperate illness."-New
York Herald Tribune Books * New York Herald Tribune Books *
