Although the streets of the Bronx in New York were not paved in gold, the 1940s and 1950s were the golden years for author Eugene Racond. In this personal memoir, he shares his experiences and what it was like growing up in that era in this special borough.

Now in his mid-seventies, Racond chronicles his life from childhood to adolescence. Written with humor and heart, "Stickball and Egg Creams" provides a glimpse into this special time in America. From vacations in the Catskills, to his escapades sneaking cigarettes, excursions to Coney Island, and stickball games with friends, this narrative provides a nostalgic look at the 1940s and '50s. In addition, Racond recounts his family's hardships in Poland and Russia, their arrival from Europe, and their strong will to succeed in the United States.

From his many experiences, Racond developed firm beliefs in his world and his life, and he shares these views on politics and presidents in "Stickball and Egg Creams." But more than anything, this heartwarming memoir portrays the feeling that growing up in the Bronx was something to be proud of.

Lost its quality after gaining popularity
Size: 1 count (Pack of 12)
I’ve been subscribed to this brand for at least 2 years now. It used to be heavy duty, now they switched to cheap thin carton like everyone else has. No point to overpay for average quality.

Junk!
Color: 3675 ALL Silver
Good luck getting the back plate back in once you change the battery! You get what you pay for so spend the extra money and buy a better watch not made in China.

Really nice watch!
Color: 3675 ALL Black
Really nice and clean looking watch. Fairly easy to adjust the watch band, with a little patience. Item description stated battery operated, but I don’t think it is as there is no indication that it has a battery in it. Other than that, really decent watch! I would have given it a five star rating if it were battery powered.

Great price
Color: 3675 Silver Grey
The watch looks like it should cost more than the actual price. It catches people's eye and so far it keeps accurate time. Keep in mind I've only had the watch about two weeks. Of my 10 every day watches this one is the most attractive.
