MARIETTA, GA - Author's Tranquility Press announces the publication of Try N Find Us by Frederic Buse, a profoundly engaging memoir that captures the essence of a vanishing American experience. This is the true story of a young engineer and his wife Dot, who, with little more than hope and determination, purchased five acres of wooded land and spent eight years learning what it truly means to build a home.
The year was 1961. Fred and Dot Buse left their apartment for a stone house that promised tranquility. They found a world governed by different rules. Their new life included a party line telephone shared with neighbors, a postal box five miles away, and a water pump older than they were. Their property, a former iron mine site, presented a continuous stream of puzzles from a mysterious swimming pool hole full of cattails to hidden foundations of miners' shacks.
Try N Find Us unfolds as a series of vivid, interconnected tales. Readers will feel the startling jolt of a faulty electric drill on a damp morning, share the desperation of digging a new spring by hand during a drought, and experience the quiet awe of watching a deer herd from a bathroom window. The narrative balances the sheer physical comedy of DIY disasters with moments of genuine peril, such as being chased by an Angus bull or navigating the aftermath of a lightning strike.
This is ultimately a story about the slow, hard-earned wisdom that comes from the land. It is about the cost of dreams measured in unexpected tax bills, ruined dahlia tubers, and the relentless creep of poison ivy. It is also about the rewards found in the smell of split maple logs, the crystal clarity of a self-discovered spring, and the solidarity of neighbors who arrive with tractors to dig out a snowy tunnel.
More than a nostalgic look back, Try N Find Us is a timeless reflection on resilience, community, and the humble, often hilarious process of growing up. Frederic Buse writes with the precise eye of an engineer and the reflective soul of a man forever shaped by his years on Turkey Hill.
Try N Find Us is available for purchase in paperback and hardback on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and ThriftBooks. It is an essential and deeply satisfying read for anyone who values true stories of adventure, perseverance, and the simple, stubborn act of making a place your own.
