Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Laurel Coleman Steinhice is a multifaceted person, who has lived a life of adventure. The child of divorced parents, she spent her early years in several different World War II homefront households and environments, then went overseas to join her career-woman mother in Postwar Germany, shortly after the war's end. Growing up in the American Enclave of Berlin before, during and after the Blockade and Airlift gave her a unique perspective on human experience and international relationships and set the stage for her insightful maturity, today, as an eyewitness to history. Now the author shifts from the observer's perspective with which she told her late mother's story in her previous book, Marion, to first-person reporting in Marion's Child, and gives us her child's-eye-view memories of non-stop adventure set against a backdrop of dramatic times.
