Musings to Memoirs (eBook, ePUB)

Essays, Stories, Adventures, Dreams Chronicles of a Footloose Forester

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Snatches of memory and whisks of reverie have been the ingredients that were blended into this hopeful fifth memoir that, like the other four, was never intended to be about the author but about the passing scenes, the people, places, and events that he, the self-proclaimed Footloose Forester, witnessed and cherished. The hodgepodge of undated recollections in various places and spanning over 50 years came with learning bits and pieces about archeology, cultures, plants and animals, exotic places, and viewpoints that went beyond everyday experiences. Hence, the title Musings to Memoirs with an enduring masthead Essays, Stories, Adventures, Dreams. Photo evidence has been introduced into individual stories as much as is permissible, to add a clarity of their own. The author hopes that his family and friends will retain warm memories of the past by virtue of the photos alone and where words fail.

Autorenporträt

Author Dick Pellek spent five decades on the road-again-during his career as a forester. His interest in tropical and international forestry impelled him to keep notes and copies of records regarding his travels, observations, and experiences in many of the 106 countries and territories he visited or worked in. Volume I of Acer Rubrum to Zyzyphus Jujuba: Essays and Dreams is an attempt to dissociate his opinions and thoughts, including those emanating from dreams, from his stories based primarily on past travels and adventures. Chronicles relating primarily to anecdotes about places and events have been selected for inclusion in Volume II of Acer Rubrum to Zyzyphus Jujuba: Stories and Adventures. Dick Pellek currently resides in Greenbackville, Virginia, with his wife and soul mate of fifty-one years, who is a central figure in many of the chronicles by the author, who prefers to narrate in the third person tense, as the Footloose Forester. Till this day he and his wife are still celebrating their honeymoon.
