Summary: The spyglass tree: The growing up days of Scooter from boyhood to manhood into college.
Summary: The seven league boots: Scooter, aka Schoolboy, a bass player so named because he has a college degree, plucks and bows his way across the country with a famous jazz band, and onto Europe.
Summary: The magic keys: Growing up brilliant and curious in Alabama, Scooter was told he was destined for greatness. Now newly married and a graduate student in humanities at New York University, he goes about discovering just what he is destined to be great at. Anchored by Eunice, his "Mrs. Me," Scooter makes the rounds of Manhattan's libraries, jazz hangouts, galleries, skyscrapers, and endlessly fascinating streets, meeting the people who will help him find his way.
