Paul Revere Road in 1642 in the English Civll War
This book helped me get As and Bs in college. Not really. I just said that. I have one of those memories that got me through college this way: I would read the text book, underline it, and the night before the test I would read what I underlined, and then get either an A or a B. A week or two later my memory would fade.
I read this book when I was in the 7th or 8th grade. I know exactly where he was located on the shelf at our library in Paso Robles, CA., but I don’t remember the book very well.
I do believe this was in it: In order to memorize people’s names you had to connect their face to something, like: “This man’s name is Bill,” and then you visualize a one dollar bill in his hand. Then the next time you see him you can remember his name, “Hi Dollar,” you say. I tried this a few years ago when I had joined a group here in Oklahoma. I remembered everyone’s names this way, and then after quitting the group a few months later, whenever I ran into one of them in town, I couldn’t recall their name. It only works if you remain in the group and keep making the associations.
I think this book may have been the one that talked about singing in order to remember things. I realized then how easy it was for me to remember songs, so I spent one day singing my history lesson, and ii worked. It went like this:
Paul Revere road a horse into town,
he yelled that the people to get down
The British were coming;
they were not going,
and it all happened in 1642,
a day when the sky was blue.
It was something like that. I hated dates, and I have no idea if anything happened worthwhile in 1642. Well, yes there was an English Civil War. I looked it up, and Paul Revere rode in 1775.
I don’t recall anything else about this book, but with a memory like mine you can get through almost any college course, that is, if they don’t give you a freak test two weeks later.
