Have you ever wondered what children who had no cell phones, television, internet, or even a swimming pool did all summer? Meet Johnny B. Goode, a young boy growing up in a rural southern Mississippi community in the 1950s. Each chapter of this book relates some of the escapades a boy living in the country might instigate. There was no organized children's programs and very little crime, so a boy could roam the whole community as long as he could get there by walking or on his bike. The only times he had to check in were at the noon and evening meals. A boy in the country would invent ways to have fun, sometimes creative and other times downright dangerous. Enjoy the escapades of Johnny B. Goode in a little town called Union, Mississippi in the 1950s.

Über den Autor Johnny Neil Smith

Johnny Neil Smith, a retired educator in Mississippi and Georgia, taught Mississippi, Georgia, American and World History. Smith has written three previous novels, Hillcountry Warriors, which received praise from Publisher's Weekly, Unconquered, which was a finalist in the Georgia Writer Association's Author of the Year, and Beyond His Mercy with Susan Cruce Smith. Four of his great grandfathers served in the Confederate Army, and he has long been fascinated with the Civil War. His knowledge of that war and Federal prison Camp Douglas in Chicago, Illinois has made Beyond the Storm true to the times. The main character, John Wilson, was named after his grandfather and many of the accounts of battle and prison life relate to his great grandfather, Joseph Williams, who lost an arm in the battle for Atlanta and was sent to Camp Douglas.
