Hon. Geo. W. Peck
Peck's Bad Boy and his Pa
Hardcover
(David McKay Co., Inc. Jan. 1, 1927)
, 1st Edition
A funny and accessible book even today, Peck's Bad Boy and His Pa offers a glimpse into how childhood was in the USA back in the old days of the late 19th century. Loosely based on the author's own family life, the allusions to how things were on the Wisconsin frontier in those times, and the folksy expressions and slang of that era evoke nostalgia and fondness for a bygone America. In a time before radio, television or the Internet, most people received lighthearted entertainment from books such as this.
