ROBERT D. McCLINCHEY looks back at a long and fruitful life in this memoir, beginning with his birth on the family farm in 1926.
Growing up in East Wawanosh Township in Ontario, he found plenty of adventureoften getting into mischief with his six siblings. The family worked together, struggled together and had fun together.
From an early age, one of the keys to Roberts life was music, which the family enjoyed playing together. Whenever he played the fiddle, he was at peace with himself and others. It also led him to his late wife of 58 years, Frances. In 1950, the two were married.
In this candid look back at his long life, Robert remembers his varied careers, including fisherman, pool hustler, machinist, mechanic, ice-road trucker, gasoline station attendant, road-builder, snowplow operator, bus driver, farmer and syrup maker. More importantly, he explores what it means to be a husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather while being a Jack of All Trades and Master of None.

Growing up on a modest family farm in rural Ontario, Jane Ovington was never the delecate flower that her mother might have imagined her to be. Instead, Jane was a rough and tumble tomboy who was known to enjoy time in the barn, skipping school for an impromptu hunt, or mixing it up with the boys who dared to pick a fight. As the years passed, Jane roused less rabble and opted to marry her childhood sweetheart, build a home, raise a family. and eventually transition into the off-farm workforce. She did this without letting go of her cheerful and humourous personality, and without forgetting her cherished family roots and childhood lessons of a simpler time. Plain Jane preserves and shares these stories. Whether viewed through a local history lens, or as a lookback at the Ovington family, these recollections are informative, entertaining, and they offer something for everyone. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2021
