Book excerpt: "The true essence of a community is its people, the ordinary folks and families who comprise a town's fabric, its heart, and its soul. The spirit of any town is reflected in the lives, the stories, and the lore of people who live or have lived there - the young and the old, the ordinary and the extraordinary, the prominent and the common. Together they become an amalgam that we call our hometown. In the voices of people who grew up here, Growing Up in Athens brings you the essence of this one small town nestled in the hills of Southeastern Ohio. Through memories, they recount hijinks that will make you laugh aloud and events that will bring a few tears. Most assuredly, there are stories that will spark your own hometown memories."--Page 2 of cover.
