Author David L. Lyons grew up during the 1950s and 60s in the small community of Whitehall in northern Alabama. As a child, he dealt with abject poverty and the stigma of being born to an unwed mother, which greatly affected his childhood.

The text has been organized to reflect a natural and logical ordering of the steps of planning, data collection...
