Home Town Memories of Grinnell, Iowa e-bog

I attended my 55th high school reunion in July of 2012 and was inspired to write Home Town Memories of Grinnell, Iowa. This work is not intended to be an all inclusive, comprehensive, scholarly history with a preoccupation for exact dates, etc. It is simply a personal history, my recollections of the old home town during a limited period in the towns history the 40s, 50s and 60s. I have written in my own way using a flow of words that came to me as I wrote. In a town of 8,000 9,000, as Grinnell was in those days - you eventually get to know and have some contact along the way with most people. My intent was to communicate in simple, straight forward terms and was not concerned about presenting it as a triumph in English language grammar.
