Description:"As gifted a story-teller as he must have been a Navy jet pilot.... He has a way with words. Like (Homer) Hickam, he has a simple but engaging storytelling style."---Audrey Stanton, West Virginia South magazine. Seasons of Triumph is about growing up in the '40s and '50s. This deftly written and novel-like memoir by a coal miner's son weaves true tales about daily activities and schooling in hilly West Virginia, the backwoods of Kentucky and one year in Ohio. Along his path to high school graduation, the author struggles to break free from his overly restrictive mother, and he also fights to overcome two obstacles which are thwarting his two major goals... stardom on his high school athletic teams and the love of a girl. He is constantly told he is too small to play with the big boys, and he is too shy to talk to girls. Yet, he fights on... with dogged persistence, courage, religious faith, and the support of family, coaches and friends. His experience will appeal to readers of all ages, and his heartwarming memories...home life, roaming the mountains, attending a one room school, competing with teammates, dating girls...each provide a nostalgic look back in time at the daily lives of his real-life characters. This story will inspire the young who have similar obstacles to overcome, and, for the not so young, it will evoke wonderful memories of their own youthful mistakes and triumphs.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
