Acerca del libro
After years of banging my head while researching our family’s involvement in colonial and revolutionary upheavals, I realized that there was another important story to be told about more recent generations. That story is the story of my folks!
So I simply decided to write a book, my first & probably only, with the very descriptive & comprehensive title of “The Life & Times of James Henry & Elsie D. Harris”! While writing this, it hit me that very few people had the opportunity to know about their earlier years; the grit, determination, ambition, sheer work ethic and love for each other that lifted them from poverty level in 1925 to upper middle class. And this was done within a decade- two thirds of that decade being depression years! How did they do that?
Most of us recall Mom’s last decade of Alzheimer’s and Dad’s two years of terrible continued strokes, but it would be wrong to leave us only remembering the very hard end years. We should recall the strengths of this remarkable team and understand that we are all the beneficiaries!
