Lyon graduate recounts childhood in new book
GuardOnline.com, March 2, 2006 by Wil Shane
Lyon College graduate Bill Rhodes wrote the book on Calico Rock.
After looking back on his years spent living in the picturesque town set atop the brown, black and white lichen-covered bluff that gave the town its name, Rhodes wrote his childhood memoirs, "Moving Experiences," (PublishAmerica, 2006).
He spent his early boyhood in Benton County in northwest Arkansas, but in 1958, he moved to Calico Rock to stay with his Aunt Maude and Uncle Guy Majors to help with the work on the farm and to go to school. He graduated from Calico Rock High School in 1960, and in 1964, he graduated cum laude from Lyon (Arkansas) College.
