ONCE UPON A TIME IN TARENTUM In this, his fifteenth book, Dick Esler celebrates this place he loved as it was in the time between the two world wars. These were his growing-up years—a time when entire families would stroll the downtown Tarentum streets on a Saturday night, shopping and socializing. He gives readers the sights, the sounds, the smells and the very taste of it. Oh, the exotic odor of Bill Chantler’s grocery…the smell of fresh ground coffee and cinnamon sticks…bakers chocolate…Japan tea…nutmegs…and floor wax. He paints a summer of great and wonderful fish pulled from the clear Allegheny and a Fourth of July of fried chicken, watermelon and skyrockets over Tarentum. Christmases with real sleigh rides up Bull Creek Road, sled riding down Porter Street and the annual trip to Pittsburgh for shopping at Kaufmann & Baers, Joseph Hornes, Rosenbaums, and Frank & Seders. Dick Esler’s Once Upon a Time in Tarentum is his final gift to this place he loved and it is a lasting one. |
