I believe I have a fascinating story to tell, not many people of my age do this kind of thing. Maybe it is time for the rest of America to learn that not all well-to-do folks are difficult. I related to Swanee Hunt’s memoir
(I forget the title) but my book is something like hers. I have no issues like drink or sickness,but a description of what it was like when I was young.

I have self published a very beautiful memoir about both my paternal and maternal family as well as my own story about growing up during World War II. Very nice pictures as well. I would be interested in getting this book out to a wider audience, especially people of my own age and realm. I can send a copy if you are interested in looking it over. It is also on a disc (or whatever they are called.) V.C.Wood
