Hang 'Em High by Philip Gerard

I found this nonfiction meaningful because of the memories it brought to me of my own childhood and the childish things I would do for entertainment. I used to run around the town without any worries or thought about the consequences that my curiosity and actions could have brought to me or my family. While I read Gerard's nonfiction it absorbed my attention as to how the story would play out and whether or not the narrator would get seriously harmed because of the game that he and his brothers were playing. It made me laugh in relief at the end when the neighbor saved the child whilst they did not understand her panicked state.
