IN THIS SUCCESSOR to his first collection of memoirs, Corn and Me, Dean C. Dickinson continues his thoughtful reflections on the colorful people and compelling events in his life. Mixed in with the memories are a number of short essays on a range of topics that will intrigue the general reader. The short chapters, woven on a roughly chronological framework, can be enjoyed whenever the reader has even a few minutes to spare. The characters in the story range from his droll and home-loving family members to the fascinating and appealing people he met along his way. His travels took him to Europe, Turkey, the Pacific, and the Caribbean. Readers will find the same humor, pathos, and witty observations that they found in his previous book. They will be captivated by the range of his observations and inspired by his enduring love of books and ideas.
