Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In "Look Back, Don't Stare," Author Joyce Peacock Lawton gives an authentic account - filled with stories of hardship, life lessons, optimism and the power of humor - of her father's life. This engaging memoir recalls the life of James Peacock, who grew up in the 1940s in a tight-knit, Pawtucket, Rhode Island, neighborhood of working class families. Orphaned at a young age, Jim was passed around to relatives, who had emigrated with his father from Airdrie, Scotland, and who took turns caring for him. The author brings you, through her dad's stories, into the crowded streets and homes of Pawtucket to the unclaimed expanses of Buzzards Bay and Cape Cod in the 1950s, where a flat tire changed the course of Jim's life. Parts one and two of "Look Back, Don't Stare" chronicle Jim's life through his own eyes, transcribed through the stories he told his daughter over the years. Part three stories are the author's own. Jim's love of his family and his Scottish heritage, his knack for storytelling and his ever-present sense of humor shine through in these original and sometimes outrageous stories that never get old. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Codice articolo 9781928758204
