Synopsis

The early C & D canal, Chesapeake City, Maryland and life on a small farm come alive as the narrator conveys a boy’s coming-of-age experiences. It’s great fun to listen in as the writer displays the boy’s naiveté contrasted with the pseudo-intelligence of his hard-drinking, cavalier uncle. This first book of selected, fully illustrated stories by Robert Hazel relates what life was like in the canal town of seventy years ago. The boy’s misadventures and his uncle’s quirky tales will provide a relaxing, entertaining read. “Bob Hazel is an extraordinary writer who paints vivid pictures of days gone by in Chesapeake City. It's easy to imagine yourself spending time there when life was so simple and you were unencumbered by the stresses of modern day life. You will find yourself smiling as he helps you to recall our small, sweet town through his most precious childhood memories.” Cathy Malone, former elementary school teacher—Chesapeake City, Maryland.
