Autorenporträt

Lyndel was born in Helena, in the first half of the last century, as she tells the high school students to whom she teaches basic blacksmithing at Powell County High School. She finds it's worth the price of divulging her antiquity as she watches the students work this out, their eyes widening in alarm. Charmingly, they then offer to lift heavy coal sacks for her until the horror fades and all returns to normal. > Her career took her from Vietnam in 1957 to Yosemite National Park, Fort Point, Alcatraz in San Francisco, and finally Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site in Deer Lodge, Montana. Along the way, she discovered that a job could have many dimensions, and there was always something new to learn and challenge.
