Welcome to Chicago's Southside L. Curt Erler comes from a large, hardworking family and in his autobiography, Southside Kid; he pays homage to strong family values, a simpler time at the tail end of WWII. The author recalls his childhood growing up on Chicago's Southside. The family gathering around Mom's Philco radio listening to Glenn Miller and Frankie Laine. There's dancing and drag racing on the East Side. It's all here, baseball, movie matinees at the Avalon Theater, young love and Friday night dances with the St. Felicitas kids. Moving into the mid-50's you'll find yourself surrounded by Rock and Roll and the sounds of Chicago's jazz joints. Music always played a big part in "The Kid's" life, and he provides an unparalleled written soundtrack that is bound to provoke happy memories. Southside Kid's narrator is the only non-Catholic attending a Catholic school. Young Curt was fortunate and clever enough to make the best of this rather trying opportunity. He tells of his Yankee adventures in the South and a few altercations on Chicago's Southside streets. This book is a wonderful and wildly fun journey down a memory lane filled with laughter and high jinks that leaves its reader with a sense of longing. Everyone should have a childhood that is this much fun and a life that is this rich. In fact, for L. Curt Erler it isn't a life, it is a celebration and it is what makes this memoir alternately so touching and so hilarious.

The following is a series of events and perspectives from the eyes of a kid raised on the South Side of Chicago. All of the chapters are unique and cover a wide variety of topics. You can compare personal experiences, if you lived through these times, or get a glimpse of life "back in the day." Each chapter attempts to have a point and hopefully will be helpful on some level in your life. You may find yourself laughing, crying or simply scratching your head, but you will not be bored. Each chapter stands on its own and may be read in any sequence. I was asked once, "why are you writing this book?" I didn't have an immediate answer, but later saw a quote by J.D.Salinger: "What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're done reading it, you wish that the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though." I will be happy if only one reader of this book gets that feeling.
