Coming of age in New Jersey in the late 1940s, Greg and his pals got into enough scrapes to fill a book. That book is Mischievous in Mendham, an anthology of comic memoirs based on the author's childhood and told in the vein of Garrison Keillor, he sheds light on the fact that these incidents are not unique to his hometown, but are a microcosm of the American comedy in general. Mischievous in Mendham traces Greg's life from a childhood of adventure and discovery, where he gets into trouble at church and broadcasts family gatherings over a homemade pirate radio, through adolescence, where he notices girls transitioning from classmates to attractive members of the opposite sex. He torments an aunt, has a run-in with a ghost, and with his friends eludes angry neighbors and even the police chief on a particularly mischievous mischief night. A profound and universal anthology written with wit, warmth, and nostalgia of times long past, relatable to all adults who fondly remember their youth.
