Post Scripts: A Commentary Of Opinion, People And Places, Originally Published In The Gallatin North Missourian

This is a collection of some of my father's favorite columns that appeared in his weekly Post Scripts column in The Gallatin North Missourian from 1952 through 1995. The columns are about the people, places and things that make up life in the rural community but really that apply to life everywhere. It becomes obvious as you read that the decisions to cover the news were sometimes gut wrenching for my father and at times the columns are filled with joy. The columns include glimpses of the writer as a father, husband and son, as well as stories about the array of people who make up life in Gallatin, Missouri, over the span the collection covers. The commentary also covers the writer's experiences as a member of General Douglas MacArthur's press staff in World War II, as well as his perspectives on events of more recent times. Some of the columns are about colorful country editors my father knew and loved, as well as some of the town's generous and colorful citizens, whose lives have been immortalized in the pages of the newspaper and in the pages of this volume.
