Storms of Tribulation: the Depression Years Terry Minke

Storms of Tribulation is a journey, into the world of a youth as he encounters the challenges, lessons, and tribulation of the years surrounding the Great Depression. The characters Jim encounters are colorful, crude and sometimes absolutely comical. Using slang speech narrative brings these characters to life in a true-to-life adventure. Through Jim's eyes you will experience the hardships, revel in the adventurous, and come to grips with an era that helped shaped the characters of older Americans we know today. Many of the rendezvous arranged by Jim's friends around the ole' swimming hole proved to be the catalyst for many of Jim's "life's lessons" and molded his character into a solid, conservative gentleman he is today. Jim's colloquial style of writing will send you back to the "Good old days" in a fury of reminiscence that reminds you that those days were not so "good" after all.
