Quotes
Narrator: [narration as John 'John Boy' Walton, Jr. reading from his journal] As the news of war in Europe grew increasingly grim, we could feel a tension here at home, a charge of electricity in the air as we looked to the outside world with new interest and concern. It was a time when my brother, Ben, was reaching out for new horizons, and for my family, the long Depression years were coming to an end.
