DOWNLOAD EBOOK""At least you once had a life - and perhaps one day I'll have one,"" Seb tells his great-grandmother, but only occasional words draw a response. Her bitterness at being placed in an old people's home is fading as her memory melts away. During Seb's visits she scatters hints of a life she has kept secret from her family. Did she once have another identity? What did she do in the war? Why does no one know? And what has she forgotten that torments her? Seb tries to unravel her past and reconstruct her life. At times she falls silent and drifts away clinging to a fragment of memory. Then Seb is left to soliloquise about the dissatisfactions of his own life. He describes his attempts to begin a relationship with a girl - any girl - and in desperation hits on the idea of an arranged romance. But his efforts are being sabotaged.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKReturn to Calvary is a collection of short stories and poems my grandmother hand wrote many years ago prior to her death in 1981. The stories tell of her life and people who made an impact on her while growing up in the early 1900s in a little town on the eastern shore, Crisfield, Maryland. Crisfield holds a special place in my heart and always will. What our family affectionately refers to as Calvary was actually our Aunt Sallies home place and in our hearts, it always will be. A place where to this day, Aunt Sallie resides in our familys gravesite. Return to Calvary has been created to share how different and wonderful growing up in the 1900s in Crisfield really was. There is no doubt that it will be treasured by all who read it.
