In Ike's Words
At Ease: Stories I Tell to Friends
"Father understood our wants . . ."
"The time came for me to enter Garfield . . ."
"Those of us from the south, in Abilene's Civil War . . ."
"A large barn and acreage . . ."
"Bruises and emergencies were normal . . ."
"Racing down a wooden platform one evening . . ."
