Tom Martin has provided a heartwarming personal account about growing up in Toano, Virginia, the village which was James City County's commercial hub when he was young in the 1920s and 30s. Intended to benefit his children, the stories he shares are insightful to anyone interested in what life was like in early twentieth-century James City County. At that time, Toano was a bustling place with about twenty family homes, a school, a railroad depot and freight station, barrel and canning factories, a bank, three hotels, several stores and restaurants, garages for motor vehicles, stables for horses, a pool hall, and more. Tom then continues his life journey with his induction into the US Army in 1943 after his second year at VPI. He shares a number of adventures of basic training, transportation by ship over to North Africa, and some moving experiences during World War II in Italy, France and Germany. This Second Edition contains the author's hand drawn map of Toano from the 1930's, family tree information, a glossary, an index, and an appendix with a tribute to Tom's brother Ju Ju, who was lost in WWII.
