Book Description
"Winifred Elizabeth (Manning) Allbeck--"Snicklefritz" as her papa nicknamed her--began her life in the dead of winter when the world was being torn apart by The Great War and devastated by the Spanish Flu, the worst pandemic in recorded history. Nearly 100 years later, she and her daughter, Ellen (Allbeck) Maurer, sat down to tell her intimate story--interwoven with grand changes taking place in American rural life. From kerosene lamps and one-room schools to the Great Depression, times changed-- and so did her life. School years were followed by long-distance loves--captured through letters presented within the book--and her world expanded to include a happy forty-four-year marriage to Frank, whose tale blends into hers. The secluded life of the farm girl of the early 1900s eventually blossomed into adventures in more than two dozen countries on three continents." page 4 of cover

Snicklefritz
Author: Frank Stephenson
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1796011118
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Within that period between adolescence and old age dwells different types of people all gathered together in one body, one brain, and one soul. No, that does not imply that we are all suffering from multiple personalities. The book is about the kinds of experiences that a person might have according to that person’s age, geopolitical place in time, and interests, which also change with time. Lewis Carroll alluded to the phenomenon. Consider Chapter V, “Advice from a Caterpillar,” of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland wherein it says this: “Who are you?” said the Caterpillar. Alice replied, rather shyly, “I—I hardly know, Sir, just at present—at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.” Do you know what kind of person you were when you woke up this morning? Are you that same person now?
