Set against the backdrop of the Great Depression and World War II, this personal narrative explores the life of a young man from a privileged upbringing in Newport, New York. Oliver La Farge reflects on his journey through economic turmoil and global conflict, aiming to capture the essence of America through his experiences. His autobiography is praised for its depth, focusing on the transformation of a boy into a man of integrity, rather than just a chronological account of events. An appreciation by John Pen La Farge highlights its superior storytelling.
