Описание: This book "My Life in a Changing America" is autobiographical and relates the episodes that changed my life. Rather than a time line of continuity, the book is divided into stories of events, people and unseen forces that were important at different times in the grand adventure of life and the pursuit of the American Dream. In my lifetime I was fortunate enough to go from growing up as a poor farm boy to traveling the world as an educator and a university professor. I have lived much of my life during the period of what might have been the Golden Age of America. As a youngster growing up in an isolated village in the middle of the peninsula that separates the Chesapeake Bay from the Atlantic Ocean, I had naively believed that I was invulnerable to the fates of others around me. Now at age 88, I have come to the realization that the adventure of life is much like the trajectory of a shooting star flashing across the night sky. No matter how high it may fly nor how bright the trail it leaves behind, it soon vanishes into the unseen depths of space and time. . I have written this autobiography to leave a trace of my shooting star.

Описание: This book is divided into two sections: poetry and prose. All of the contents represent a lifetime of experience, observation, thought and reflection. I must confess that my view of life has been influenced by many poets and writers. Perhaps my favorite poet, among many others, is the English poet John Keats. One of my favorite writers, again among many others, is Thomas Hardy, another English man. In reflecting upon my own writing, I cannot name any writer who has influenced my style of writing. In my opinion, a writer's style is the most important feature of his or her writing. A writer's style reflects not on y a view of life but a sensitivity to the emotional thrust of the writing. My a1m 1n the writings in this book 1s to combine my view of life with a sensitivity to the many emotions that the v1ew of life creates. My wish, Dear Reader. -s that you find at least a suggestion of something that may enrich your experience.
