In a House overlooking the Sea - John Graham - Bog

- A Life

Bag om In a House overlooking the Sea

This is the autobiography of John Graham ... a nuclear scientist, a world traveler, a multi-marathon runner, a writer with over twenty books, and an art lover, and, more than all of these, a family man who has been blessed with two families, forty years apart. This part of John's life takes place during a period (1933 - 2009) when the world was changing: the status of women took a step forward; the electronic world took over our lives; publication and communication changed; war moved from set battlefield enemies to terrorists; global warming became a rallying cry by activists for all manner of purposes; and more. 5 days after John was born, Adolf Hitler came to power as Chancellor of the Third Reich, while, as the book is published, Barrack Obama completes his first 100-days as American President. The world has changed. It is no wonder that John's autobiography encompasses strong opinions and makes no apology for strong likes and dislikes.
