Wherever Home Is

An itinerant academic recounts anecdotes from life and times on five continents. The Dakota prairie and early days in rural Idaho provide experiences and insights into farming, forestry and public school education. College days are enriched by an out of country internship and student exchange. Years of foreign trade and voluntary agency work find the author and family members facing challenges in Latin America and North Africa.The author describes episodes of personal, professional and family life in those venues with acute insights in the milieu of people and places. He concludes with reflections on peace, social justice, spiritual maturity, and aging with dignity.
