Growing Up in Goosetown

Bill Leonard writes of his childhood in a unique neighborhood that has disappeared, both time and place. Those readers who knew Goosetown will enjoy the virtual trip through the alleys and back yards, the playgrounds and schools, the marsh and the Fairgrounds. And though Goosetown is central to these childhood adventures, what happens to the author and the community around him as he becomes aware of this magic setting of 70 years ago will awaken memories of anyone who experienced life at that time, or perhaps heard about Goosetown on a grandparent's lap.
