Boys author Bob Fields depicts an accurate and vivid description of young adolescent males in the 1940's & early 1950's in rural Maine. Fields' perceptive analysis of boy's personality traits and how they influence their attitude toward life (and girls) is on target. The onset of testosterone further complicates boy's views about girls and sets up conflict and confusion about sex. Fields skillfully shows how boys made their own fun through ingenious ways of building Bikes, Skies and Bob Sleds from items salvaged from the town dump.
They didn't have much when it came to material things but improvised with what they had. The reader will learn that Boys growing up in this era had a wonderful, uncomplicated life.
