Publisher's Synopsis

The Country Boy: The Story Of His Own Early Life is a memoir written by Homer Davenport and published in 1910. The book tells the story of Davenport's childhood growing up on a farm in rural America during the late 19th century. Davenport describes his experiences living in a small community, working on the farm, attending school, and interacting with his family and friends. He also shares his observations and reflections on the natural world around him, including the animals and plants that he encounters on the farm. Throughout the book, Davenport portrays the challenges and joys of rural life, as well as the values and traditions that he learned from his family and community. He also reflects on the changes that were taking place in America during this time, such as the rise of industrialization and the decline of agriculture. Overall, The Country Boy offers a vivid and personal account of life in rural America during the late 19th century, and provides a unique perspective on the history and culture of this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
