Dedicated to all the children that had to forgo childhood, as they were called upon to shoulder family responsibilities far beyond their age. Follow the life of Iowa farm boy James Pope from first memory to age 19, as I created my plan for life. At age 15, I held my father in my arms, as he died. I took his job as janitor of the Macedonia, Iowa, Consolidated School House, supporting my mother and little sister Mary.

Autorenporträt
In high school, working on a farm as a hired man, my sisters Bonnie and Frances realized my social isolation would restrict me when I crossed the bridge into adult socializing, saying, "No girl will be interested in why you like Oliver tractors or the price of fat cattle at Omaha stockyards"! They made sure I learned how to dance and converse with girls. Live music and dancing, opened the social door. Sincere questioning/listening/open minded, lead me into the world of intimacy!
