Autorenporträt

The author was born and spent his early years on a large family farm along the James River in Surry County, Virginia. Here he was instilled with a sense of history, of not only family but of the people of the past across the river at Jamestown, or in the fields he walked on the farm. Here he began to listen and learn to tell stories. He moved to Hanbury Road in Great Bridge, in Chesapeake when he was six, bringing with him a farm-fueled sense of wonder and quest to explore. The children he met in his days in Great Bridge sparked different dreams and the tales captured in this book highlight those carefree days. He became a professional archaeologist, a discoverer and steward of history, and perhaps one day he will write in that field, but first he wanted to touch on his own past, to relive it with his friends, reveal it to his family, and have it eternally preserved for his daughter Magdalena. You might not know him, or only know of him, and find yourself reading these stories anyway. If so, may you find in them a piece of your own lost childhood wonder, a sense of place, a familiar thread in the tapestry of life. Hopefully, yours will be just as twisted.
