My Purpose in writing Old Shop Stories was to share the stories and history with my family and posterity but as I have shared them with others I found a great interest from people who are not family members they really enjoy the stories because of this I decided to publish the book. These are true stories from the life and experiences of men and woman in the early 1900, s through the great depression. This book is a collection of life experience told in my dad's repair shop which I heard as I was growing up. Time. Past, future, present. What is it? Lives come and lives go. The allusive thing called time flies on wings of lightning and the present slips silently into the past and is soon forgotten. The old shop has lain silent now for many years. The secrets, stories, dreams and ambitions held within those walls have vanished and faded into an all but forgotten history. Along with the men who were in fact, that history. My dad spent a great amount of time in the old shop out back of our house where the farmers and others would bring equipment to be repaired, cars to be fixed and have all manner of things made. As a boy, youth and young adult I spent countless hours in the shop with my dad and others. These men would often sit around and talk about their life experiences most of them originating from the early to mid 1900's About fifteen years ago I became aware that when I die these experiences along with the unique culture in which they occurred would be lost forever. With this in mind and wanting to preserve this portion of history I decided to recall from memory and write the stories I heard while sitting around the potbellied stove in the old shop. The men and women who's stories these were have lived their lives, become what they are and have taken that into their eternity. They have created and left behind their legacy. For them, life is as water under a bridge. It is gone and cannot be altered for good or bad. What is, is. What was, was. . You still have time to leave the legacy you choose to leave. Use your gift of time and choose wisely.

C. Blaine Hyatt spent hours in his father’s repair shop as a boy, listening to others tell fascinating stories. Fascinated by their strategies for navigating challenges—and the times in which they lived—he set about writing this collection of stories to preserve their collective history. One lesson he hopes readers will take away is that the things of this world do not matter in the big picture. No one cares what kind of car you have or what position you held. None of the things of this world that we often place so much value on matter much, if at all. When all is said and done, there are really only two things that last: What we have become and the legacy we leave—as in the effect, either good or bad, we have had on others. As you read these stories, the author hopes you will be aware that the water in your life is still flowing under your bridge. Take the time to become who and what you want to be and consider what legacy you will leave with others.

The Old Curiosity Shop The events of the book seem to take place around 1825. In Chapter 29, Miss Monflathers refers to the death of Lord Byron, who died on 19 April 1824. When the inquest rules (incorrectly) that Quilp committed suicide, his corpse is ordered to be buried at a crossroads with a stake through the heart, a practice banned in 1823.[3] Nell's grandfather, after his breakdown, fears that he shall be sent to a madhouse, and there chained to a wall and whipped; these practices went out of use after about 1830.[citation needed] In Chapter 13, the lawyer Mr. Brass is described as "one of Her Majesty's attornies" [sic], putting him in the reign of Queen Victoria, which began in 1837, but given all the other evidence, and the fact that Kit, at his trial, is charged with acting "against the peace of our Sovereign Lord the King" (referring to George IV), this must be a slip of the pen.

This novel is a frequently and deliberately sentimental story of pursuit and courage in adversity, of malevolent and vile villains and the plucky and downtrodden characters who oppose them and their evil actions.
