About this listen
The Old Man and Me, Book 2: Stories I Didn't Get to Tell You the First Time continues the story of the author's early life through the 1960s. It overlaps the first book, filling gaps among his original adventures. Ride along on a humpback bridge jump in a hot rod and take a senior class trip to Washington, DC.
Experience life as a farmboy trying to make his way in an exclusive small college, where a trip to Chesapeake Bay to study oysters becomes a study in eating raw oysters on an oyster boat.
Learn army life as the author and his brother go through Basic training. Spend a year with him at Camp Page, South Korea, where setting a field exercise by a horseradish field becomes a lesson in gas-attack response. Walk among heroes, and learn what a Medal of Honor really means.
Back at college the author discovers the sophisticated girl he loves, and she happily loves her "educated hick" in return. Ride along on their midwinter honeymoon journey through America's plains and mountains to grad school at Utah State U., where they endure the difficulties of being newlyweds under the pressures of grad school in an unfamiliar culture.
