Fortunate Son

Autor Brooks Eason
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 noi 2019
Julie Francis was a beautiful, wealthy socialite from Tulsa with a golden future. But during the fall semester of her freshman year of college, she learned she was pregnant. She was only 17. Paul and Margaret Eason were a middle-class couple from Tupelo, Mississippi, who couldn't have children of their own. They had previously adopted a daughter, but they desperately wanted a son to complete their family. Their worlds converged at a home for unwed mothers in New Orleans. The day Paul and Margaret took baby boy Scott Francis home, he became Brooks Eason. Mother and son never saw each other again, but life has a way of coming full circle. Nearly 50 years later, Brooks's daughter Ann Lowrey learned she was pregnant during the fall semester of her sophomore year of college. She gave birth to a beautiful baby girl the following summer. Because it was 2004, not 1957, Ann Lowrey was able to keep and raise her baby. She named her Ada Brooks. On the day she was born, Brooks learned that he was Scott Francis when he was born. FORTUNATE SON-The Story of Baby Boy Francis is the amazing true story of Brooks's adoption, the wonderful life Paul and Margaret gave him, how times changed from when he was born until Ada Brooks was born, and how he learned that Julie was his birth mother.

Notă biografică

The Scoutmaster is Brooks Eason's fifth book. His first, Travels with Bobby, is about hiking trips in the mountains of the West with his best friend. Fortunate Son, his memoir about his adoption as an infant and discovery of his birth mother's identity when he was nearly fifty, was nominated by the Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters for best nonfiction work. Bedtime with Buster consists of conversations between Brooks and his dearly departed dog and includes more than thirty marvelous illustrations of Buster by Atlanta artist Bob Fugate. Redemption - The Two Lives of Harry Brooks is a novel based on the life of his grandfather, who was a fugitive and felon in the first half of his life and a gifted Methodist preacher in the second. The Scoutmaster is the story of the wonderful life of his father, who served as a Boy Scout leader for more than sixty years and was an extraordinary influence on three generations of young men in his hometown. Brooks has three children and five grandchildren and lives in Madison, Mississippi, with his wife Carrie, three rescue dogs, and an orange tabby cat named the Count. In their spare time, Brooks and Carrie host house concerts, walk the dogs, and dance in the kitchen.
