Chas and his family, trying to blend into a rural, tightly knit Old-World Wisconsin community enter an era of turbulent change, where family circumstances, employment, and even physical features become subjects of speculation. Join Chas and friends, the first Boomers, as they continually adjust to new realities, from dirt roads to Interstates, Steam trains to Diesels; they see the Jet age blossom, and satellites reach into space-all within one amazing generation.'
