Publisher's summary

This book will have you laughing. It’ll have you crying. But most of all you will be fascinated by the events and the people you meet in this sixty-six year span of American history. Grow up with an extraordinary American family in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Watch as automobiles increase in number, entertainment evolves, and electronic devices are invented. Experience the joys of the Pikestein family as it matures and prospers. Enjoy their triumphs and cope with their tragedies. This is the continuing saga of the “Legend of the Pikesville Cave” – Tom’s book that covers the Civil War and the immediate years after that conflict. Tom Barker continues to spin a tale that will keep you cheering for his heros and the characters they meet along the way, including W B Selden holder of the first patents on the automobile, Lee de Forest the father of Radio, A. C. Gilbert inventor of the Erector set, and characters you never knew existed. Illustrated with drawings and photographs reminiscent of the past. You can visit the fictional village of Pikesville right in Tom’s basement where it is a part of his operating toy train collection.
