"I savored every page. Every time I sat down to read this, I wanted a wet dog at my feet, a crackling fire, a good cuppa Joe, and Mom's pot roast in the oven."-Mel Miskimen, author of Cop's Kid: A Milwaukee Memoir, "I savored every page. Every time I sat down to read this, I wanted a wet dog at my feet, a crackling fire, a good cuppa Joe, and Mom's pot roast in the oven."-Mel Miskimen, author ofCop's Kid, "These vignettes life-lovingly recall the days when the bass just wouldn't stop biting, when baseball cards were collected because you were a true fan of the game, and when a grandfather might actually deploy a whoopee cushion on freeloading, self-important guests." -Susanne Skubal, Voyageur, "I savored every page.

Sweet and Sour Pie is wry, introspective and honest-it's an excellent piece of writing."-Shooting Sportsman, "Crehore's affectionate--and frequently amusing--recollections of his transplanted boyhood years in Manitowoc will captivate a generous spectrum of audiences, from readers with roots in Manitowoc and rural Wisconsin to those concerned about the demise of childhood as it was once lived in America."--David Rozelle, professor emeritus, University of Wisconsin-Richland Center, "I savored every page.
