Harry Turner was a newsman for a long, lifetime career. In this personal, frank memoir, he recalls both the bright and the dark side of his life, a life of hard work, poverty, difficult marriages, alcoholism, current events, idealistic struggles, and (late in life) an absorbing and fulfilling single-parenthood. Turner grew up in the urban South during the Depression, began his newspaper career in Los Angeles after World War II, lived in San Francisco, Mexico, Tobgo, and Puerto Rico, where he became Managing Editor of he San Juan Star. Harry Turner's writing style is professional, brutally honest, and fair. As a newspaperman, he knows how to tell a story; this memoir is anecdotal, occasionally funy, always entertaining. Most of all it is passionate and moving.
