Customer Reviews

Just as I imagined growing up in Memphis would be like.

It's been a while since I've read this book but it was wonderful. James Conaway's story of growing up in midtown Memphis in post WWII is detailed with all the experiences a boy would have in my adopted hometown. This book should be read by anyone who loves Memphis.
