BAC: British Art Center copy bound in publisher's olive-green quarter cloth and black boards; with dust jacket. With author's presentation inscription to Paul Mellon.
"This book is an uncommon combination of humorous stories and personal experience. Many of the stories grow out of the experiences of an 85-year lifetime spent in Kentucky, Minnesota, Ohio and Maine. All of these experiences provide the author both a context and a perspective for recording 'my observations and philisophy about life in Kentucky.'"--Dust jacket flap.
