Born in 1925, Arthur Dorsey lived through the Great Depression, World War II, and all of the significant movements and changes of the 20th and early 21st centuries. He was a member of what journalist Tom Brokaw called the Greatest Generation. This book contains Dorsey's memoir and includes interviews conducted by his grandson, Nathan Cole. The Greatest Generation is slowly fading away, and their words and stories are all that remain. "Once Upon a Life" allows at least one of those voices to live on.
