The Adventures of Buckfart, Seabiscuit, Pedro and the Gang : 1942 - The War Years

Twisters, Ghosts, and Good Old-Fashioned Fun In the first of this three-part series, we meet Buckfart, Seabiscuit, Pedro, and the rest of the gang of boys from Tory Forks, Minnesota. Their adventures will take them from fishing and swimming to tornados, illegal moonshine stills, and a visit to the cemetery in search of the ghost of Mr. Swartz and the tree from which he hanged himself. Lose yourself in the year 1943, a time when people take "love thy neighbor" to heart, and the pain of war is shared by all. The small farming village is a community filled with God-fearing, hardworking folks who are proud to be Americans and satisfied by simple pleasures like homemade rhubarb pie. In the tradition of Huckleberry Finn, the boys from Tory Forks will entertain readers of all ages-those who want to lose themselves in nostalgia for days gone by, and those who can relate to kids on the verge of adulthood, experiencing the thrills of life as they existed during that era.
