description: My storied career as an educator began in a one-room schoolhouse deep in the hills of Harlan County, Kentucky, when I was only nineteen years old. From that somewhat inauspicious start, my journey as a teacher took me to a three-room school as the teacher-principal in Bell County, Kentucky, to another one-room school in Bell County, to Tucker High School in Georgia, to Georgia Military Academy, ending at Augusta College in Augusta, Georgia, as a professor of United States history. Of course, there were several stops along the way: a two-year hitch in the United States Army, a stint of several months as a blue-collar laborer, and a brief sojourn in retailing. This book is an account of the career of an educator who loved to teach and who loved all his pupils and students.
