Paul A. Mascitti [1943 - 2021] was a lifelong Vermonter. In the midst of many generations of family, he had been a listener, an observer, an admirer. He stated his frequent surprise at the ideas and facts his characters told him that he didn't know he knew. He previously published short stories and observation pieces in the Green Mountain Trading Post, The Times Argus, and the Vermont Literary Review, among others. The Hour of Remembering is his first full length novel, its completion and publication the realization of a lifelong dream.
