A memoir is a way of presenting aspects of a person’s life story. The book is a collection of 110 short essays each highlighting a subject or event.
The author’s life has followed two paths. The first path follows familiar stages of life: education, military service, career, marriage, and retirement. Memoirs along this path, about one half of them, tell of unique events, experiences and beliefs, such as working in the theatre, modes of dancing, working at a thrift shop, the trials of telephoning, a search for a lost person and his personal growth.
Memoirs from the second life path describe my extra-ordinary experiences in the outdoors; they are about hikes, backpacks, mountain climbs, bicycle rides, and bird discovery. Included in these memoirs are accounts of leading a party up Mt. Rainier, backpacking the Zion Narrows, climbing Yosemite’s Half Dome the harder way, bicycling in the Black Hills of North Dakota, and seeking birds in Arizona. These memoirs describe unusual and unexpected incidents and they often provide “lessons learned” from what he has experienced.
