5.0 out of 5 stars
A new perspective,
By James J. Halsema (Glenmoore, PA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Remembering Childhood in the Middle East: Memoirs from a Century of Change (Paperback)
During a five year assignment in Cairo (1961-1966) as head of the U.S. Embassy cultural and information programs I naturall tried to learn as much as I could about our audiences but I never saw an account of growing up in Egypt or nearby nations until this one. Elizabeth Fernea and her husband have lived in intimate contact with their peoples from the swamps of eastern Iraq to the bazaars of Morocco. She has a gift for describing her surroundings. Here she has assembled the memories of a panoply of individuals from every walk of life from royalty to villager during the momentous changes of the 20th Century.
