Book excerpt: Second Age describes travels and adventures on the Mississippi and in the Far East, part of the memoirs of its author who was a young man in the early 1930's. He takes us along part way down the Mississippi in a houseboat, and across the Pacific when he worked as a bellboy on board the President Coolidge. Life lessons and experiences are shared in Second Age, a Recall of Things Gone By and a Bit of Now, during a time when life was not always easy but was often less complicated than it is now, when warm oatmeal and raisins were deeply appreciated, and when people while struggling during the Depression were also generous, kind, and down to earth. Experiences are heartwarming and are a pleasure to read.
