圖書名稱:South of the Frontera; A Peace Corps Memoir

內容簡介

"Humorous, well-told, highly entertaining...You are in for an adventure." Michael Schmicker, author of Land of Smiles.

"A dose of good medicine." Starley Talbott, author of Lasso the World; a Western Writer's Tales of Folks Around the Globe.

"A classic." Craig Carrozzi, author of The Road to El Dorado.

"Premature middle age escaped us and high adventure called..." begins the author in this humorous memoir about how Hard-Times became Good-Times. Following a job loss, a worn picture postcard ignites adventures South of the Frontera leading to the Peace Corps. This is a vivid description of Mexico and Central America between 1975 and 1977. From basking in the Sea of Cortes alongside a pelican to learning to dance in Honduras, an original voice rings true with youthful curiosity and down-home wit and insight.

 

作者簡介

The Author was born in the southern suburbs of Chicago, Illinois in 1951. His family later moved to Arizona where he graduated from grade school, high school and Arizona State University. He reluctantly served in the U.S. Army Reserves during the closing years of the Vietnam War and enthusiastically volunteered for the Peace Corps. His travels and work have taken him from the salmon spawning Nushagak River Basin in southwestern Alaska to the fertile Argentine Pampas. His continuing studies have included master’s coursework in urban planning at la Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico in Mexico City, art and creative writing at Skyline College in San Bruno, California and education at California State University Fresno. He has earned his living as an urban planner for many years, working in Honduras, Mexico, Alaska, Arizona and California."
