Maude Warye Good suggested to her husband that he write down his life experiences so that their three daughters could know more about his upbringing. In 1960, he completed a manuscript that was professionally published for the first time in 2018. In the following pages, he describes living in the 1880s and 1890s on a Mennonite farm in Lancaster County in Pennsylvania. He also tells of his decision, at age 26, to leave the community that had nurtured him, enroll at Goshen College and dedicate his life to the further education of himself and others. Harry Gehman Good was wise, interesting, bright and ethical, with a kind twinkle in his eye. All of this is preserved in "The Boy from Brecknock."
