Book Description

Excerpt from Many Happy Returns of the Day! President; but even at that I get a certain amount of cheer out of it, as I shall explain later. There was a time when my birth day was a mighty important event. For twelve months you might wake me up any night and ask me how old Iwas and I would say, Eight, going on nine, ' and the moment I opened my eyes on December 5th I was nine, going on ten, ' and the most important job I had was to look forward to the next birthday, when I would be ten, going on eleven.'
