Cahaba Creek Gang: Summer In Leeds, 1969

By Mr Hodge Patterson III

In the summer of 1969, five boys roamed the parks, creeks, and railroad trestles of Leeds, Alabama, convinced they were invincible and certain the world belonged to them.

Cahaba Creek Gang is a warm, funny, and deeply nostalgic memoir of bottle rockets, rope swings, risky dares, and long days that stretched until dark. Set against the backdrop of the Apollo 11 moon landing, these stories capture a fleeting moment when childhood felt endless, consequences felt distant, and freedom came on two wheels.

Written for family, friends, and anyone who remembers growing up before screens and supervision, this book is a tribute to boyhood, friendship, and a summer that felt bigger than the world.
