Second Age

Second Age is part of several recollections of its author, who described his life and experiences when he was a young man in the early 1930's. He takes us with him part way down the Mississippi in a 'floating house' and across the Pacific on journeys and experiences to the Far East, when he worked as a bellboy on board the President Coolidge. Life lessons and experiences are shared in Second Age, from a time when life was simpler, 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.
