Jerome

By Les Gates

In 1939 in the heart of the depression a man with a dream and a young family, buys a farm in Jerome Ohio. His son Les tells his story of what it was like to grow up in the 1940's and 50's in the small town, surrounded by a close-knit farming community where the heart of the social life was the grade school and the church. Jerome is a pleasant read both for adults and children and will elicit a chuckle as you are transported back to a time when people were "all for one and one for all". It is exciting to know that young people will be able to read the book in Dublin Ohio High school and Middle schools libraries. It is so important for them to connect with local history and to know those who came before them. For some they live on the land that is talked about in the book. In September 2014 the Dublin Ohio school system was rated number five in the United States for a quality education.It is a book you will want to read more than once!
