Produktbeschreibung
Throughout her lifetime, Rita McLaren has documented her experiences in journals and on scrap paper. Now in a collection of short stories, poems, and photographs, Rita shares colorful insights into her unique journey through life that began on Corsie Hill in Perth, Scotland and carried her across an ocean and a continent to settle in Vancouver, B.C. Canada. In a vivid portrayal, Rita captures the history of her life that led her across two continents and through six decades from 1935 to the present day. She begins by detailing the beginning of her life while living in her family's two-hundred-year-old heritage home on Corsie Hill, spending her days running wild and swimming in the River Tay with her twin sister and other siblings. As she leads others through her experiences from childhood to today via images and writings, Rita proves that an adventurous life is the best life.

Autorenporträt
Rita McLaren was born and raised in the beautiful countryside of Perth, Scotland. She lived in the family's two-hundred-year-old heritage home on Corsie Hill with her mother Elizabeth, father Daniel, and seven siblings. The home had stone floors, no running water, and wood fires for cooking and heating, but it was big enough for their family of ten. Rita spent her childhood running wild on Corsie Hill and swimming in the river Tay with her identical twin sister Marion and their siblings.
When Rita was twenty-one, her sense of adventure brought her to New York to visit her life-long pen pal, before she eventually settled in British Columbia. There she met the love of her life, Walter Agabob and together they raised three boys, Marty, Greg and Keith.
Rita's curiosity led her to a passion for many creative pursuits, including calligraphy, ceramics, Hawaiian dance, gardening, painting, and most certainly writing stories and poetry.
