Lieutenant David Nelson and His Descendants (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from Lieutenant David Nelson and His Descendants His military record was almost forgotten and might have been forever hidden but for the pious search made through the Archives of Pennsylvania by his great-grandson, Commander Frank N. Eldridge, U. S. N. In many instances the pioneers neglected to preserve their own records and consequently the memory of their own brave deeds. Their swords were hung in garrets or literally turned into plough shares, their military papers buried in old chests, forgotten, lost or destroyed.

On the April 10, 1957, episode, "Ricky the Drummer," Nelson started his singing career by lip syncing to Fats Domino's "I'm Walkin'." He scored 36 Top 40 singles between 1957 and 1972 and ranked number 5 in Billboard's Top 25 Artists of the Decade 1950-1959. As a country rock pioneer, Rick Nelson influenced Buffalo Springfield, Linda Ronstadt, and the Eagles. This book is a candid account of his life in rock and roll through stories told by musicians and producers on the road and in the studio with him. Actors and family members also provided invaluable memories and insights.
