Living life in a rowhouse neighborhood surrounded by Catholic parishes, corner stores, and thousands of kids your age, is a unique experience. From the late 1950s to the mid-1980s, McCullough discusses the games he used to play and how his neighbors kept a close eye on all of us. A compilation of essays that detail life in Southwest Philadelphia to New Jersey. He includes memories of Christmas time, days in school with the Catholic nuns, vacations at the Jersey shore, throwing snowballs, getting under the fireplug, and going to the Saturday movies. McCullough pays tribute to his neighborhood heroes, one who was killed during the Vietnam war and a police buddy who was killed in the line of duty. Other heroes, he mentions, helped take care of his mother who suffered from MS.
