Legacy: A Step-by-Step Guide to Writing Personal History.
Spence, Linda
Based on the idea that a personal history is a gift to share and can restore the connection between generations, this book is animated by the belief that life has value and knowledge for others. The book traces the writing process of producing a personal history with supportive coaching, stimulating questions, shared memories, and evocative photographs. Following a preface, the book situates its chapters in chronological order, i.e.: "The Gift of 'Legacy'"; "Beginnings and Childhood"; "Adolescence"; "Early Adult Years"; "Marriage"; "Being a Parent"; "Middle Adult Years"; "Being a Grandparent"; "Later Adult Years"; and "Reflections."
