“Where did our governmental institutions come from? A fascinating and readable genealogy of Democracy.”
Richard D. Lamm
former Colorado governor
“Craig Barnes has crafted a beautiful, evocative book. This vivid reminiscence of family life in the rural West explains better than any general work I have read the beliefs and values and personal strengths that enabled the so-call 'greatest generation' to surmount the challenges presented by the Great Depression and the world's first global war. As a story of family life in America, Growing Up True is a boyhood classic which belongs on the special shelf that holds Russell Baker's book about Growing Up in Baltimore.”

“Combining the rare alchemy of a literary scholar, legal practitioner, and explorer extraordinaire, Craig Barnes dares to rewrite the history of Western civilization and vividly resurrects the woman as our vessel of rebirth. A must-read for anyone who worries that we have lost our way.”
Gail Sheehy
author of Passages and Sex and the Seasoned Woman
