Publisher's Synopsis
Each of the stories in this handsome volume recaptures a time now past, bringing back a lost way of life with vivid remembrances. These unforgettable tales range from the drama and devastation of a huge forest fire in a lumbering community to a glorious summer with Atlantic fishermen, the ups and downs of land-clearing in a 20s farming community, and a thrilling hockey game with the man who built the arena. Fully illustrated throughout, the book is a great first chapter book or read-aloud selection. How We Were includes The Year of Fire, The Fishing Summer, The Stoneboat, and The Kid Line.
