When I was Very Young

By Jacob Eric Stathers

When I was Very Young is a memoir and collection of stories that are connected to boyhood and growing up in the mountainous village of Lillooet, British Columbia in Canada. Some people call this literary genre a Bildungsroman, or a coming-of-age work that focuses on the psychological and moral growth of its main character from youth to adulthood. These stories took place between the 1950's and 1970's. Readers that grew up in small towns and moved to the city or traveled on the Hippie Trail during the 1970's campus protests and counterculture movement will relate to this book. You may also enjoy this book if you are interested in themes related to the history of Lillooet B.C., indigenous people, and the scouting movement.
