Recollections: Things Hard to Forget
()
About this ebook
Travel with Victor DAmico as he recalls times, events, and places that provided him with rich memories of the simple things that made his lifes passage both enjoyable and meaningful. Marrying a woman with strong ties to Italy fostered his appreciation of his own Italian heritage and, coupled with his travels, gave him an awareness of the world and its diversity.
DAmico compares his early childhood with those of his children and traces his own journey through college, the Army, and the early years of his marriage. He recalls experiences with his children, their marriages, and his own fiftieth wedding anniversary. He describes his love affair with skiing, his time working and living in Munich, and reflects on getting old. Also included are snippets from his extensive travels, his appreciation for Italian cuisine, and the long and remarkable life of his mother-in-law and her influences on his family.
Spanning eighty years, Recollections is a memoir filled with candid observations and appealing tales of a life well lived.
