Produktbeschreibung
My Story tells the tale of one man's coming to adulthood in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Because of his international focus, the Author had said little about a subject that might interest a reader familiar with his existing body of work, that is, himself. So, he has turned a penetrating gaze from his customary subjects--people and places in the Middle East and South Asia--to a subject that provides context for his earlier books. From family histories of eighteenth-century Cevio in the Swiss Alps and Marseille in Provence; from childhood, youth, adolescence, and early adulthood in the United States; to the Navy and the Vietnam War; from ""First Footsteps in the Middle East"" to ""Timeline,"" ""Red America,"" and ""Iran Odyssey,"" these chapters play out against the backdrop of the family history now provided. As such, this work represents the capstone to a full career.
