Billy: Stories of My Childhood — Bill Martin

Born in Danville, VA, in 1930, Bill Martin grew up in a large family in the rural South where little boys played with guns for fun and blindly accepted dares from friends as an initiation ritual. Covering the years 1934-1948, Bill Martin's stories re-create the color of an era long gone, yet readers today will still identify with the feelings present in a childhood of yesteryear.
