Book Description
Snatches of memory and whisks of reverie have been the ingredients that were blended into this hopeful fifth memoir that, like the other four, was never intended to be about the author but about the passing scenes, the people, places, and events that he, the self-proclaimed Footloose Forester, witnessed and cherished. The hodgepodge of undated recollections in various places and spanning over 50 years came with learning bits and pieces about archeology, cultures, plants and animals, exotic places, and viewpoints that went beyond everyday experiences. Hence, the title Musings to Memoirs with an enduring masthead Essays, Stories, Adventures, Dreams. Photo evidence has been introduced into individual stories as much as is permissible, to add a clarity of their own. The author hopes that his family and friends will retain warm memories of the past by virtue of the photos alone and where words fail.
