Synopsis

"One Man In His Time" is the biography of Herbert Lorance McCullough of Tipton, Oklahoma. Although this record was primarily intended to be handed down through the McCullough family, this story is for anyone interested in the early history of rural Oklahoma.

"One Man In His Time" contains descriptions of living in a typical, small Oklahoma farming community during the period 19201970, and tells the life experiences of a farm boy who was a member of that group of Americans known as "The Greatest Generation". A family tragedy leaves Lorance without a father at age nine, and by age twelve, he assumes an adult's role as family bread-winner. Enduring the hardships of the Great Depression and the rigors of combat in the skies over Europe during World War II, Lorance overcomes every challenge to settle down and raise a family on the Oklahoma farm he loved as a child. He has two sons that he rears with the fatherly love that he himself lost as a child. Struck with terminal heart disease in his golden years, Lorance's Christian faith enables him to endure years of deteriorating health to see his sons marry and enjoy his first grandchild before completing his life's journey.
