An emotional and brilliant sequel to Dandelion Wine by the author of Fahrenheit 451. In the town of Green Town, Illinois, Douglas Spaulding is in the middle of a small civil war, where the young oppose the older generation. This is the second book in Bradbury's semi-autobiographical narrative of his childhood. Mr. Calvin C. Quartermain, the school board's authority figure, tries to outsmart the boys at every turn, while their pranks escalate and become more daring and mischievous. Once the shadow of winter covers Green Town, the boys realize that their true enemy is not so much the elderly members of their community, but the passage of time, beyond the reach of their boldest cunning: a daring attempt to sabotage the town's clock.
