Descrição do livro
What was it like to grow up in a small Midwestern town during the 1950s and '60s? For Kay Fisher, it meant a world of freedom, curiosity, and endless adventure. In a town of just 1,200 people, every day brought a new opportunity to explore. There were homemade motorbikes, classic cars, model airplanes, cameras, electronics, and enough youthful schemes to keep one boy—and occasionally the local police—busy. Along the way came unforgettable family members, lifelong friends, and an older brother whose example shaped an entire life. But One Town Kid is more than a collection of entertaining stories. It is the story of how a small-town upbringing fostered a lifelong passion for learning. That same curiosity eventually carried Kay into the U.S. Navy, the emerging world of computers, and a career filled with technology, problem-solving, and innovation. Whether he's restoring an old automobile, explaining how early computers worked, recounting life aboard a Navy ship, or laughing at his own youthful mistakes, Fisher writes with warmth, humor, and an appreciation for the people who helped shape his life. Readers who enjoy memoirs, Americana, classic cars, military stories, photography, computers, aviation, or simply hearing a good story will find something to enjoy here. Funny, nostalgic, informative, and heartfelt, One Town Kid is a journey back to a time when kids learned by doing, neighbors knew one another, and curiosity was the greatest adventure of all.
