Adventures Before We Were Twelve

It was exhilarating and sometimes painful to remember some of the things that happened to me and my family that I share in this book, Adventures Before We Were Twelve. There was the blizzard of 1936 that nearly took my baby brother Bill, who almost succumbed that year to pneumonia, and the time Dad almost scalped himself with a double bitted axe when he slipped on the ice while chopping wood.I'll never forget the day my little brother Gale and I took our first train ride, all on our own, when he was just four and I was six years old.It was a sad day when our favorite horse "Molly" lost her eyesight. About that time equine encephalitis swept through the horse population in Southwest Iowa. I was seven years old and expected to help save one of our horses.Times were simpler back then, but it also took hard work to sustain the family. There were all kinds of adventures to be found on and around the farm in the 1930's and 40's. I hope you enjoy reliving some of my more memorable Adventures Before We Were Twelve. - Gary Hawhee, Author
