Harold Kurtz vividly remembers and warmly appreciates what it was like to live in a community where joy was collectively celebrated and sorrow collectively shared, secrets quickly wore out their welcome, and everyone knew enough about everyone else to mind their manners most of the time. These uplifting stories celebrate friendship, honesty, family and helping your neighbor. Whether you have ever lived in a village yourself or are being introduced to village life through the book, you will get a kick out of the characters and antics in these pages. This book will be of special interest to those interested in the culture of small town Wisconsin with tales of circus parades, town festivals, and the Wisconsin State Fair.
