    About this ebook

    The Lost Chronicles hits home with the teenage genius search for truth in all of us.

    Ernest Hemingway's first wife lost a suitcase full of prized manuscripts on a trip home from Paris. These missing stories were never to be seen again. Who knows what literary classics that suitcase may have contained?

    In the imagination of this author have been found those missing memoirs—a series of twelve exciting adventures, with more to come, found by way of "biographic fantasy noir." "The Lost Chronicles of Young Ernest Hemingway" unveil his earliest, most fascinating adventure stories, and monologues read like eaves-dropping while he unloads in his priest's confessional booth.The author imagines what the childhood and teenage life of Ernest Hemingway in Petoskey must have been like.

    This stylish series of young adult novels reveals literary merit, fine design, and strong kid-relevance. Filled with unbridled Victorian romance, adventure, betrayal, parent-sibling drama, and tribal temptations tastefully presented like a cathartic, primal glimpse into one, very troubled, sub-conscious.

    History comes alive in these historical adventure stories!

    "The Lost Chronicles of Young Ernest Hemingway" is indeed the perfect platform on which to expose those early, deeply gnarled roots of America's most analyzed, literary bad boy.

      Chapter 1: Ridin' the Rails

      The early 1900’s was a period filled with radical change on all angles: Air travel with Lucky Lindy, Amelia Erhardt, Curtis and Wright, Water travel switched from sail craft to steamers, the sinking of the Titanic, communication changes with telegraph, telephone and radio.

      Social change during this period was most radical with folks flocking to city life with plenty of factory work. They found themselves making the big switch from pastoral farm living to the fast- paced, polluted life of cities. The automobile probably had the most impact upon us, making it easy to leave the farm and take up city dwelling. Buses and trains sped up the social transition and aeroplanes made it possible now to engage in cross-continental migration.

      Fascinated by trains, I preferred to travel illegally – riding the rails. Hitching a ride on an open box car, to me was the greatest thrill, plus the price was right. Turn-of-the-century freight trains were not burdened as yet by threatening numbers of hobo or tramps therefore security was rather loose at first. Brakemen did chase off when the occasion presented, but I always played it smart. After a while I figured out which brakemen were bulls about it. Getting a night stick or blackjack to the head could mess ya' up pretty good.

      While in high school, Harold Sampson and I rode the rails quite often. Other pals, like Lou Clarahan and Mussie Mussleman, also would come along, they, mostly for the adventure of it all, but for me, it was to satisfy my extreme addiction to the exciting sport of fishing and all that it brought with it.

      Twas always our good
