The 50's created the America we know today and this little book tracks that tumultuous age through the starry eyes of students at St. Mary's who trudged through snow, ate ground beef with gravy on mashed potatoes, wrote with fountain pens, covered themselves with ink, and endured daily trauma in pursuit of an elementary education and the elusive state of grace. Join the kids Immaculate Conception Parish as they enter the atomic age, witness the dawn of Rock & Roll, watch Leave it to Beaver and attempt to memorize the entire Baltimore Catechism before they turn delinquent.
