Produktbeschreibung

Whether facing the problems of family illnesses such as kidney disease and a transplant in Chicago or a mother with early-onset Alzheimer's, this is a humorous look at how hard and wonderful life can be. It's told from the perspective of an older woman who has managed to retain her sense of humor, her love of family, and her faith.

If you live long enough, you become a type of history book that may not be used at Harvard, but it will be recognizable to a generation of people still living today. This book takes place in a small northern town in Maine called Allagash. The town would rise to fame because of the river and become designated as a state park, Allagash Wilderness Waterway, and part of the federal Natural Wild and Scenic Waterway system.

The story follows life on the waterway, the Virgin Islands, and moving to central Maine. It includes a young woman gaining a college degree while raising three children and running a canoe rental and sporting camp business with a husband who felt women could do it all.

Having your birth coincide with the year electricity came to town, three months before the nearest hospital thirty miles away opened a maternity ward, leaves you feeling that you're the last of something special. With that in mind, she wants to share this story with you.
