Overview

Literary Nonfiction. Memoir. Art. These 37 journal entries from 1867 to 2008 present--in words, photographs, and paintings--the extraordinary lives of ordinary people: a young married couple in a covered wagon train, an immigrant on a ship to America in 1919, a backpacker on a bus in Guatemala, a woman in Tel Aviv under missile attack, a teenager in the 1970s, an adult daughter caring for her elderly father, a stay-at-home dad with his new daughter, a passenger on a grounded flight on September 11, 2001, and many others. Saucy, revealing, tender, tough, pained, funny, determined and surprisingly literary in the hardest of times, this anthology presents 150 years of history seen through the cracks of private lives--Dudley Clendinen.
