COMING OF THE STORM CLOUDS

About the Book

Coming of the Storm Clouds, as the author notes, came to him because it seems to him that every time there is a storm, something bad happened. He recalls talking in length with his grandmother after he returned from Vietnam about what it was like growing up in the late 1800s and the early 1900s. To him Valera told some very interesting stories. He talked to his own mother to fill in the gaps. The words of those two grand people, and a few others, lie within the covers of this book. Even a few secrets are revealed.
