Book Description
Excerpt from Early Days in a College Town, and Wabash College in Early Days and Now: With Autobiographical Reminiscences In this labor of love, I feel that I should begin at the beginning. Crawfordsville was young when I arrived there, and so was I. My father, born in Green County, Ohio, April 3, 1801, was married in November 1821 to my mother, Janet Westfall, born in Kentucky. Their parents both sides were born in Virginia. After living on a farm in Ohio, (given them by my father's father, ) for three years they left with their first born, my brother, Jacob, (a pair of girl twins died soon after birth) and with their worldly goods in a covered wagon, for Montgomery County, Indiana, camping at night along the way, where they were kept awake at night by the screams of panthers and howls of the wolves, which they kept away by keeping up fires.

Henry for President
Author: Henry NicolsPublisher: Henry Nicols
ISBN: 1438230923
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
In 1985 before AIDS was a word, 10 year old Henry Nicols, a hemophiliac, was infected with the deadly virus from a blood transfusion. For years his family kept the secret about AIDS from everyone. In 1991, a senior in high school and deathly ill, 17 year old Nicols boldly announced to the world "I have AIDS." Protected by his community of Cooperstown, NY (the Home of Baseball) Nicols quickly became a celebrity and a poster child for AIDS understanding. He then became an international AIDS advocate and educator, travelling around the U.S. and the world spreading a message of compassion and love. Nicols died of complications of AIDS in 2000. This memoir, written by his father, is the legacy of a brave child suffering from a chronic illness and then infected with the scourge of our time. As a tear-jerking page turner, Henry for President is a must read for anyone who wants to better understand challenge, compassion and human nature.
