From The Back of the Book
"This is a story of Faith, Family and Friends, told by an expert raconteur under a cloak of humility and ordinariness. There is, however, nothing ordinary in this autobiography that is penned in the author's hope that the reader will find some virtue to emulate. Her ability to recall events of some seven decades is eerily uncanny. However, since it is the story of her odyssey from her natal country through other countries, climes and cultures she strove for and achieved accuracy in dates of pivotal events. This makes her account forthright and relatable to readers of a certain age. Perhaps fittingly and given its title, the book opens with an unabashed declaration of her strong and unwavering faith in God as the "author and finisher" of every aspect of her life. Her story starts with a recount of a Christmas celebration with her immediate and extended family in her beautiful Florida home. She describes a mesmerizing scene, of beauty of landscape, music, a full spread of food and of a festively dressed and animated company. There is an innocence in her style, perhaps unbeknownst to her. Her power of description at once draws the reader into her narrative and keeps them spellbound for the entire ten chapters of the book." (From The Foreword)
