What about 2023?

 I read this book and enjoyed it so much.  It about things that happened that year.  Big things occurred—Jesse and the Youngers went north and robbed a bank, Little Big Horn, plus the beginning of organized baseball in America.  If you like history you’ll love it. 

Someone may write a book in 100 years about the year I graduated from high school—1968.  The World Series that year featured the St. Louis Cardinals and Bob Gibson.  They lost!  The Tet Offensive was set in motion.  Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy were assassinated.  Tricky Dick was elected President of the United States.   My son in law Eric was born.  I left Green Forest, Arkansas and never lived there again.
