This collection of short stories is very diverse, dealing with difficult times of human suffering during World War Two and the Hungarian Revolution, but it also celebrates the exultation that goes with winning a life of freedom.There are also stories of life in the Golden Horseshoe area of Ontario and the enjoyment from the multitude of lakes and beaches the area has to offer.Mixed in with these historically accurate stories, are others purely from the imagination, filled with clever fantastical locations and humorous characters that will leave the reader in thought but, most likely, laughter as well.
