A Boy Named Billy: Born in the depression

( Feb. 11, 2020)
This is a story about a boy born in the depression and learning to take care of himself at an early age. It is a bit of history, a true story showing how the love of family gives a youngster strength to take charge of his own life. Billy wants to be a cowboy. He learns to ride at an early age, but comes to realize that he cannot be a cowboy in suburbia. His parents were divorced early in his young life and he stayed with his father. When World War II started, his father joined the Air Force and Billy went to live with his mother in California. After the war Billy had to make the difficult decision of whether to go back with his father or stay with his mother and siblings. This is volume 1 of a series describing the life of an American in the 20th century living in the western United States—working to prepare for veterinary school.
