A richly detailed memoir recounts a life that began in the 1920s-30s, revealing experiences of rural living in Conne River and Bay D’Espoir, confinement in a tuberculosis sanatorium, and service in the Forestry Service during WWII. The narrative intertwines ancestral roots with a changing cultural landscape.
John Nick Jeddore's richly detailed memoir begins when he was a boy in the 1920s and 1930s. His historical account makes a major contribution to our understanding of life "on the country" and in Conne River, Bay D'Espoir, as well as what it was like to be confined to a tuberculosis sanatorium and to serve overseas in the Forestry Service during WWII. John Nick recounts a lifetime of following in his ancestors' footsteps and reflects on his attempts to reconcile that heritage with a changing social and cultural world. His book will serve as an important legacy for many generations of scholars and general readers.
