... No concrete evidence was ever found as to who lit the match but I overheard Dad tell Mum, "I've got it narrowed down to three small suspects." The childhood adventures of three brothers growing up in a small town in country New Zealand in the 1950s, 60s and 70s. The brothers are a part of a large family of seven. Their adventures and hi-jinx involve the deliberate flouting of family and community values. The aftermath of some of their outrageous pranks, if embarked upon today would result in dire consequence. Fortunately for the brothers, none of their escapades adversely affected the overall well being of the town's populace, either individually or en masse except in maybe one or two cases but even they were questionable. The exploits cover a period of almost twenty five years. They revolve around school, white baiting, hut building and many pastimes obsolete in today's world of television, computers, mobile phones and iPods. Written in simplistic prose the story finishes after the boys' mother passes away. Their father had preceded her by six years. Horgan writes in a frank, warts and all, honest and ultra humorous style which will bring back fond memories for baby boomers and will have the younger generations in fits of laughter, disbelief and awe.

There was so much of this book that took me back to the days of my youth growing up in small town Oregon. Catholic religion, sports, fishing, bike riding, fort making, BB guns, girls, they all werein this book written by Nicholas Horgan on his growing up in small town New Zealand. The names might sound different but the story is much the same. You'll find hi-jinx, mayhem, danger, humor, excitement,love and tenderness all in this memoir. I found myself relating to stories about marble shooting, fishing, stories about Mom and Dad and the family.
I thought this was a definate labor of love and comes across quite well showing life in the times without too many electronic distractions. The good old days, I suppose. I recommend this group of stories for just some good, "bring back memories of your own childhood" fun.
