The River Elkhorn is a vivid recollection of life as experienced by a young farm boy. The family farm, situated along the banks of the Elkhorn River in northeastern Nebraska, provided ample opportunity for excitement. Home-made entertainment and witnessing farming failures were all part of the boy's young years in the 1940s.Riding calves in a barnyard rodeo, cruising down the river on a log raft, and riding a horse bareback at full gallop are examples of fun at full tilt. Coyote pups and Lassie, the pet raccoon, were some of his companions. Slopping the hogs and milking the cows by hand were chores turned into mischief by young Curt. Stealing a ride on his dad's river trolley became excitement beyond the boy's intent. The author's love of the dusty hay loft was pure pleasure.
