Hi, all--Just a note to let you know about my new book, which includes 27 stories in a major chapter and elsewhere describing life in Tomahawk in the late 1940s and early 1950s. "Days with the Dads: Recollections of a Small-Time Journalist" is available from the printer at http://www.lulu.com Just type in the title or my last name and search.

--Dick Klade, THS '53

What's a major champter???

Sorry folks, but the grammar nazi came out again. Wouldn't it make sense that if you want to generate some public interest, you'd try to make a logical & accurate post??

Nazi, I think what you are dealing with here is a typo! I even figured out that should be "chapter". Those quick typing journalist don't remember to proof, they depend on proof readers and editors.

Thanks. Even nazis are appreciated when they help those who work correct their miscues.

Any plans to make it available at Cover to Cover books here in Tomahawk ?

I don't plan to initiate sales there. The book store owner could deal directly with the printer (lulu), however, and get a quantity discount and then sell copies. I'm not pushing sales very hard, just trying to make those who may be interested aware of the book. I did send a notice to Dixie Zastrow of the Tomahawk Historical Society and also e-mailed a news release to the Leader. I've also e-mailed my list of Hatchet friends, and several have bought copies. Unfortunately, my list of old Tomahawk friends is shrinking rapidly!
