This collection of short stories, essays, and personal anecdotes explores the world as seen--and remembered--through the eyes of a nonagenarian. Irwin Sagenkahn lends a unique perspective to childhood, daily activities, and the fleeting moments we're all too inclined to let pass by. The collection of this potpourri of life began in 1959, when Sagenkahn was enrolled in a correspondence writing course, and have been lovingly and painstakingly transcribed from the original handwritten or typewritten forms by Sagenkahn himself.
