It's My Life

Born on the island of Providenciales in the Turks and Caicos, author Charles C. Palmer shares a life's worth of experiences in this, his memoir. Recalling the good times, the bad times, and everything in between, Palmer narrates the hardships of growing up at a time when there was no electricity and no running water and even fewer conveniences. It's My Life tells of what life was like from the 1950s to the late 1990s, including his childhood, his parents, his siblings, his schooling, and the uniqueness of the island lifestyle. Palmer details his experiences and explains how God blessed his life-from being the first native to manage a small hotel to owning a restaurant to winning the lottery. Filled with an array of anecdotes, It's My Life provides insight into one man's life as he sought to overcome the hardships and make a better life for himself and his family.
