Book Reviews of The Book of Myself A Do-It-Yourself Autobiography In 201 Questions
Book Review: The Book of Myself
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is needed for the older generation to pass on their knowledge and wisdom to the younger generation. it is designed to alert the mind of the elderly with easy questions so they can pass on their wisdom and activities to the next generation. We are not doing that as a nation but it is needed to continue our civilization. I mention this good book in my forthcoming book "pass it on or Lose it.
Summary of The Book of Myself A Do-It-Yourself Autobiography In 201 Questions
A keepsake fill-in book contains more than two hundred prompts divided into three life phases--Early, Middle, and Later Years--and separates each phase into five subject categories--Family, Friends, Education, Work/Responsibilities, and The World.Strong is the urge to write one's life story as a keepsake for oneself and one's family. The difficulty is knowing where to start, and then where to go from there. Carl and David Marshall, a grandfather-grandson team, have created a fine and fun do-it-yourself autobiography. The cover of the journal-sized Book of Myself is intended to resemble handmade paper; the inside pages have the yellowed hue of a keepsake found in a musty attic trunk. The book is not especially pretty. But the questions--one per page, divided into early, middle, and late years, and then again into sections concerning family, friends, education, work and responsibilities, and the world--are good enough that it hardly matters. Among the 201 jumping-off points included here are questions concerning childhood toys, crushes, and forbidden exploits; adult embarrassments, betrayals, and achievements; and how one's views change over the years. --Jane Steinberg
