The Fields of Home by Ralph Moody
The fatherless Moody family moved from Colorado to Medford, Massachusetts, in 1912, when the author was entering his teens. 'I tried as hard as I could to be a city boy, but I didn't have very good luck', he says. So he is sent to his grandfather's farm in Maine, where he finds a new set of adventures.

"As bright and clean as clear water bubbling over rocks in a trout stream."—New York Times
"A lively story . . . warm with humor; bright with incident and personality."—San Francisco Chronicle
