O knihe

The bygone eras of our past gave rise to a generation with stories worth holding on to, taking place in a world that has since vanished from America, for better or for worse. Yet triumph and delight grow from unexpected sources.

Once Below a Time is author Glynn Baugher's account of growing up poor in rural Virginia in the middle of the twentieth century, and it is a memoir of a vanished world. Full of social details and vignettes of the colorful characters in Glynn's early life, it portrays a world rich in specifics, deriving the universal from family particulars. Glynn carefully traces the contours of a fading way of life and fills his stories with vibrant personal narratives of his bucolic youthful days with family.

Glynn's story is that of the unexpected-of surprise, triumph, and delight. Join him on his illuminating retrospective, where out of poverty and a primitive early education spring comedy, success, and erudition.
