Book Description
As I look back over by childhood, it gives me thoughts of happy times. It gives me a good feeling to be allowed to share these memories with you. I bring you true accounts of life through my eyes from early childhood through young adult life. I was born and raised in Bidwell, Springfield Township, Gallia County, Ohio. Bidwell is a small community located in Southeastern Ohio. Our county seat is Gallipolis, Ohio. During this time period, the population was probably three hundred to one thousand people, including children. Our police protection was from the Gallia County Sheriff Department, which was seldom utilized since the residents were law-abiding citizens. A few times, a constable was appointed. Everyone seemed to get along well and was very caring. Families were well known to one another. All children were known to which families they belonged.

Book Description
A wildly comic send-up of Irish literature and culture, "At Swim-Two-Birds" is the story of a young, lazy, and frequently drunk Irish college student who lives with his curmudgeonly uncle in Dublin. When not in bed (where he seems to spend most of his time) or reading he is composing a mischief-filled novel about Dermot Trellis, a second-rate author whose characters ultimately rebel against him and seek vengeance. From drugging him as he sleeps to dropping the ceiling on his head, these figures of Irish myth make Trellis pay dearly for his bad writing. Hilariously funny and inventive, "At Swim-Two-Birds" has influenced generations of writers, opening up new possibilities for what can be done in fiction. It is a true masterpiece of Irish literature.
