Quotes 

• Narrator : [narration as John 'John Boy' Walton, Jr. reading from his journal]  The post-war world is an era of innovation. We stood upon the threshold of a new age which was ruled by sudden change. Technical advancements in medicine, science, and electronics had a profound effect on the way we lived and thought. None of us dreamed how deeply we would be affected by those advancements even though we were close by when it all began.
