Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen once wrote a book entitled Life Is Worth Living and I wholeheartedly agree with him.

Tucked among some factual information, you will find funny, unusual and sometimes profound stories and essays. I trust you, the reader, will have fun sharing my life.
Relief, Recreation, Racism
In the literature dealing with the Civilian Conservation Corps, South Carolina does not figure prominently in most histories of the Great Depression story. That neglect should be corrected! It is important to recognize the ways in which racism has permeated our society, sometimes blatant and sometimes subtle. While the focus is South Carolina, the particulars are representative of what happened in CCC camps across the nation. As one of the most popular facets of President Franklin D. Roosevelts New Deal, the activities and antics of the CCC boys deserve attention. My primary purpose in writing this book is to assist teachers and librarians and their upper level elementary and high school students in understanding this crucial but understudied era in South Carolinas history. These readers and a more general South Carolina audience could identify with a nearby place or make a family connection.
R.A.W.:
Can a Depression Era Midwestern farm boy attending a one-room country school find success in the world unfolding around him? This autobiography addresses that general question by answering several queries into major events of these ninety years. What was learning like in a one-room country school of the late 1930s and early 1940s? How fares the first in his family to attend high school and then continue to earn bachelor, master, and doctoral degrees? How did experiences in military service shape the development of this individual? At two major land grant universities, how were issues of integration, war protest, cultural advancement, and academic expansion addressed. In retirement, what adventures lay in extensive travel and enrichment teaching? The answers to these questions are found in annual budget books dating to marriage in 1952, letters from occupation Germany, academic year calendars, family photo collections, Christmas newsletters, and the memories that these stir.
