I Think We Were Normal

Growing up holds challenges for everyone, and all families are different. The Densmore family in the sixties and seventies was kind of like the families you might see on television—but only in the sense that there were parents and kids. After that similarity, they went quickly in a different direction. They never went over the cliff, but they definitely rode the edge of it—often on two wheels. Families can be a great source of memories, both wonderful and agonizing, and the Densmores were no exception in that regard. As interesting and occasionally painful as author Steve Densmore’s childhood was, he wouldn’t change it for the world. Unless someone offered him cash—then he might consider it. This memoir shares true tales of growing up during the sixties and seventies in a family that didn’t quite match conventional standards.
