It is set in the 1940s, 1950s, and early 1960s. It is an easy read, but very interesting. Bruce grew up in Northeast area and attended Northeast High School. It is his story of growing up in that area. Bruce Clayton's real name is Harry A. Logan. I think many of you might enjoy this book. I did not grow up in Northeast, but in an area very similar in South Kansas City. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
