Growing Up in Riverside: a LIfelong Accumulation of Essays

Gary Layton's paternal grandmother kept a diary her entire life. One day she shared some of the entries from her life in Riverside, California, in the early 1900s with her grandson. Gary was so inspired that he started keeping his own diary for his grandchildren. The number of entries soon grew out of control, and he started turning them into essays. The result of those writing efforts, these many years later, is Growing Up in Riverside, an accumulation of essays recounting everyday life and adventures from early childhood until the present, starting in Highgrove, California, during the early '40s, on to Riverside in the late '40s, '50s, and '60s, and later years throughout the desert areas of Southern California.
