Publisher's Synopsis
This is a book is a literal "smorgasbord" of short stories written about everyday people. I have made a feeble attempt to share their stories. A portion of the book is devoted to the Asdell family, my maternal ancestors, who emigrated from Antrim County Ireland at the turn of the 19th century moving westward down the Ohio River and settling in the Greene and Daviess County areas in southern Indiana. This book shares the stories of the "ordinary common Americans" who perform "extraordinary deeds" outside the "limelight". These are life stories we can all identify with from our own histories.
