Notes: "Abingdon is rich with history and children there grow up hearing stories about Daniel Boone, Wolf Cave, the Tavern, ghosts tales, and many other legends that are included in this book. These are the stories from my childhood. While this writing is not intended as an historic document, every effort was made to ensure that all references to history are accurate. The childhood experiences speak of a different time when life was a lot simpler and kids could be out of sight and on their own for the entire day. Entertainment was exploring, wading creeks, playing simples games like Red Rover, Olly Olly outs in Free, and Kick the Can; things that probably seem dull and boring by today's standards. But it was our life and it wasn't all that bad. Poor didn't seem so deprived at the time."
