It was a time of endless possibilities. As the Depression ended and World War II began, to the beginning of a new world in the early 1950s, the Oklahoma Boy knew no boundaries. In his inspiring and heartwarming memoir, Doug Belshe hearkens back to a time when boys were boys, exploring their world with wide-eyed innocence, a pinch of mischief, and a belief that the next hillside might hold a whole new world. His adventures began with his grandparents on the farms of Grady County, Oklahoma. From the simple chores of life on the farm to the simple pleasures of time spent with his grandmother, it was an idyllic start to what would be a sometimes nomadic but always engaging adventure. As he and his brother continued to grow, they found themselves following their oilfield working father from a myriad of stops in Oklahoma, Kansas, and even Los Angeles, California. They swam raging rivers, explored canyons, hitchhiked to faraway places, and hopped freight trains. Sometimes they made the right decision, and sometimes they were in the wrong, but they were always together. There were hard times and good times, but with the help of his brother, the guidance of his father, and the prayers of his deeply religious mother, Oklahoma Boy conquered his world.

This vibrantly written memoire is beautifully descriptive but never boring. You may laugh, you may cry but the journey of his life is compelling. This author gives texture to the lives of those he writes about. His characters are well developed in a subtle way and there is a charming innocence to the world in which they lived. It is a fundamental story of a family's devotion to each other and to their basic survival; it is heart breaking to read of the sacrifices made just to avoid giving up. It is a passionately written example of the American spirit. This book includes stories of corruption, extending even to multiple murders eventually investigated by the newly formed FBI. Although the law forbade the sale of mineral rights owned by Osage peoples a surviving white husband could, however, inherit his wife's mineral rights. It also explores some of the devout religious beliefs of the time and how it could mean the difference between life and death. It is a story of the land and how the power of the people lay in the hands of those who had the oil. These circumstances enabled the author to come to grips with, racism, prejudice, the life of the "have and the have-nots." His childhood gave him a glimpse of the reality of adult life, which he would later confront. The descriptions he shares of a country boy's experience of Tulsa and dressing up when "going to town" will give you a glance into a bygone world. The anecdotes he shares are sometimes sad but often hilarious. We each can relate to the struggle to come of age when we are not quite ready for the experience. It will draw you in to a wonderful story of a boy's hard life of survival in the Osage country of Oklahoma. The small pleasures he describes will give pause and make you reflect on your own life and what is really important. The constant pulsing of oilfield equipment pervading the life he lived is in stark contrast to the rugged beauty of Osage lands. The culture of hunting with both runnin
