Description
Adam Richter, an undernourished fourteen year old orphan, is sent by county authorities to live on a hardscrabble farm where two brothers beat him repeatedly. But Adam is a survivor - and more. He flees back to his hometown and, through hard work and very clever planning, rises from his humble beginnings and becomes a leading citizen of the town. But the brothers who had mistreated him earlier continue to visit troubles on him. Protected by their powerful father, they face no consequences. When the Brother's torments become intolerable; quiet, unassuming, model citizen Adam contrives a revenge that is as well-devised as it is effective. All Our Yesterdays is a story of grit and determination and one of the most important human rights: the right to be left alone.
