Book Description
After 30 years of family medical practice in Monroe, Michigan, Dr. Hyuna Steward’s husband, Tom, revived the tradition of traveling to their sister country, Canada. During the last ten years, they rode the Via Rail train from Windsor to London, Toronto, and Montreal. These were enchanting junctures of their lives—walking Montreal’s cobblestone streets, and attending theatre performances in Toronto and London, Ontario. Dr. Steward earned a third-degree black belt in Choi Kwang Do at Monroe Martial Arts in Monroe, Michigan. Eight years of five-days-a-week practice prevailed upon receiving her black belt. She even broke her left fifth finger during her karate practice. Hyuna learned perseverance, integrity, and humility while she trained to be a martial artist. Hyuna and Tom have been married for 35 years and have four sons; they were closely involved in their sons’ education, sports, and recreational pursuits. On July fourth weekends, they would drive to Niagara Falls to watch the spectacular fall view. Two of their sons were married in 2017. In May 2019, Tom and Hyuna entered into grandparenthood. They look forward to seeing their grandson, Landon James, laughing and scampering around the house. It has been Hyuna’s passion to write a book to express her gratitude and to remember these momentous events in her life.

Book Description
Although recognition of reminiscing as a potentially adaptive process can be traced back over 30 years to the seminal work of Robert Butler as discussed in the Foreword, there has been little effort to consolidate the work and paint a complete picture of reminiscing as an entity. Here, reminiscing is presented as a multi-disciplinary topic, examining the theory of, and research on, reminiscing. The book also discusses the different ways of conducting life-review interviews and explores therapeutic applications.; Contributors to this book, many of whom are pioneers and leading figures in the field, discuss and elaborate their latest thinking and research findings from multiple perspectives. The volume's strength derives from its multi-disciplinary nursing, psychiatry, psychology, gerontology, community advocacy and multinational Australia, Canada, England, Sweden and the United States treatment. James Birren, Irene Burnside, and Phillipe Cappeliez are a few of the eminent scholars authoring this volume.

Book Description
The editor, Cheryl Dunbar Kahlke, has woven five written accounts about Fire Island into a very readable book, generously complemented with photographs and postcards of the 1920s to the 1940s era. The five narratives are universal in emotion and yet simultaneously immensely personal in detail. That private quality triggers the reader's sensation of a personal knowledge of the feelings and experiences of each. In addition, each tale is enhanced by that presenter's honest abandon as they penned their memories in their own vernacular and individual colloquial style.Overall, the subject matter, Fire Island, universalizes the outpourings. Factual and historic details in timelines, maps, charts, newspaper articles, and other memorabilia add to the book. These keep the stories grounded in historic reality, which is useful for those who desire a deeper background of the times.

Book Description
One of the authors began conducting business transactions at the age of six when he operated a shoeshine stand at the Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn, New York. Who would have guessed he'd win a handful of scholarships and fellowships at Harvard? For that matter, the coauthor started out as a farmboy yearning to enlist in the US Navy--a yearning that grew more intense when his mom intercepted his army draft notice, and suddenly it disappeared. Once fulfilling his dream of becoming a sailor, who would have guessed he'd wind up getting slammed by an errant fuel hose, landing him smack into the Atlantic Ocean without a paddle. This little book of vignettes relates the very personal and sometimes sad, sometimes downright silly and funny experiences and adventures of two old guys who've seen it all. The authors Paul Pendell Mok and Larry Rummell enjoy telling tales and hope you enjoy reading them as much as they did writing them.

Book Description
This book is a compendium of short stories of my youth growing up in the island of Trinidad in the 1950s and 60s. My 32 Chevy The year was 1961, and I was still in high school. I lived in Trinidad at the time. This 32 Chevy was the apple of my eye. Trinidad was a British colony, and all we had were English cars. An American car was a luxury, and a 32 Chevy was a rarity. I would dream about this car. I would picture myself sitting behind the steering wheel cruising up High Street (the main drag in San Fernando, my hometown). My friends would be envious, and the girls would dote over me for having such a cool car. Some time passed, and I stopped seeing this car on the road. The Racing Bike I got my first bike at the age of twelve. In Trinidad in the 1950s, a bicycle was an essential means of transport. Few people could afford cars. The bicycle was the dependable machine that took you everywhere on the island: to work, to school, to the beach, across town to visit friends and relatives, to the shop to buy goods, and downtown to hang with the boys. A Memorable Tobago Adventure The first time I visited Tobago was in 1963. I went with my best friends Wahid, Bissoon, Karl, George, and Hamid (Wahids younger brother). It was Easter, and we had carefully planned this adventure to see the famous Tobago crab races and attend other Easter boat races and sport festivities on the beach. Fondest Memories of Christmases Past Christmas is the happiest time of the year for mealways was and always will be. Growing up in Trinidad, Christmas was celebrated by everyone. The whole island celebrated Christmas. Christmas was spree time. Every house stocked up with sweet drinks (Coca Cola, Pepsi, Solo, Red Spot, and Cannings), Fernandes Rum, babash (homemade rum), Cherry Brandy, Guinness, Mackeson XXX Stout, and Carib beer to offer friends, relatives, and neighbors who could drop in at any time for a Christmas toast. An Avocado Story The avocado fruit is native to Central and South America and has been around in these areas since 8000 BC. It was introduced to the Caribbean (Jamaica) in the mid-seventeenth century and the Tropical Asian regions in the mid-1800s. The avocado arrived in the United States in the early twentieth century, specifically in California and Florida.

Book Description
In this book, a sequel to Mining My Own Life the author makes whole the omissions of several riveting episodes in his life working for a living in three continents. Growing up in Malaysia under brutal Japanese occupation; the chilling circumstances in Sri Lanka the land of his forbears that propelled him to seek employment in the West African states of Sierra Leone and Liberia which changed the contours of his familys life permanently ; the crushing process he had to involuntarily subject himself in order to obtain United States citizenship and from a position of clinical detachment he confronts point blank the twin scourges the pernicious caste system (that is pervasive in his community) and the blankness of the color blind ideology in the United States of America. To the long avowed esoteric doctrines of Karma, Maktub and Historical Determinism and to the precept of Thy Will Be Done the author deftly puts a human face by relating them to his own enlightening personal experiences which have had an enduring impact on his life.
