Book Description
Front Porches were once the center of activity for families when the weather allowed. With the advent of HVAC, the walls went up, the windows came down and doors closed and an era came to an end. Jack's Shop brings to mind, once again, those days of front porches, outhouses, and country living. Follow the antics and adventures of a young boy growing up in rural Virginia during the1950s and '60s. It may bring to mind a far simpler and, in some ways, misguided period in the history of the south. A bygone era of front porch swings, and the simple pleasures of country living is fondly recalled with a unique sampling of poignant humor. Through his eyes, the serenity and simplicity of the day is continually questioned until finally a life-threatening illness forces him to face a painful reality.
