An Upstate Boyhood
By: Thomas O. Kelly II
An Upstate Boyhood is a charming, highly literate memoir of the author’s life growing up in Upstate New York and his early adulthood farther south in the Empire State. Born in the middle of the Great Depression, Thomas O. Kelly II attends parochial school, serves in Korea, begins college and graduate school, and finally becomes a budding history professor and a family man.
Told with wit, and limned in the kind of detail that everyone can relate to, An Upstate Boyhood is a reminiscence that will remind some of their youth, surprise those now young with how some things have changed, and delight all with an enjoyable reading experience.
