Once upon a simpler time, a child's fun included an intense interaction within its environment, whether on a bus to a beach, swimming lessons in a city pool, or working tobacco fields. Interaction was also between machinery and the processes that made things function such as an icebox, iron furnace, clothesline, or oil jug. She writes of a time before technology took over and computers did all the work. The author recreates with her narrative and photographs a nostalgic reminiscence of those earlier decades for all who grew up in them and introduces the times to those who didn't. She recalls the years when life and living was hands on, when youngsters played and worked hard being part of life's assembly line. Today's children can switch on or plug in to make things function, but the fun is gone and with it, the knowledge of how things work. Lynn lived the first forty-six years of her life in the Frog Hollow section of Hartford, Connecticut. It was growing up in the Frog Hollow during the 1940s and 1950s that is the inspiration for her memoir of childhood during those years.

From revelry at socials to reverence at religious sites, a four-day walk, and a six-day war, and so much in between, the author takes the reader along on her two-year journey through the Holy Land, vividly documented in this new memoir.

Lynn was twenty-three when she changed her life''s direction and left Hartford, Connecticut, for Tel Aviv, Israel. Her new life afterward was not always easy as she straddled two worlds, each at times pulling her in opposite directions. Over five decades later, she records those experiences in A Memoir of Two Cities: Hartford and Tel Aviv. Close to two hundred letters sent home create the foundation for this memoir, as well as travel logs, notes, research papers, films, photographs, and slides.

Despite crushing homesickness at times, the two years of Lynn''s tour recorded in this narrative were those of rediscovering country, family, and herself. The author records a journey of self-discovery, revealing positive as well as not-so-flattering traits--all recorded with candor. Friends working at the embassy with her become a surrogate family, and she narrates her interaction with them with love.

The author offers the reader an introduction to the Middle East and its environs, including the ancient towns of Bethlehem, Nazareth, Capernaum, and Jerusalem. These visits reinforce her study of Jesus as a historical figure. Lynn tests herself physically and mentally in her first year, 1966, with an iconic walk and, in her second year, 1967, working at the embassy day and night through a harrowing Israeli-Arab war and recounts the latter two incidents in focused detail.

The author prefers the more narrow and focused memoir genre that enables her to compartmentalize her life, in this work, month by month. All she learns and experiences during the two years in Israel lays the foundation for her to assimilate herself with her memories back into the United States and also for future study for advanced degrees after a once-in-a-lifetime journey.

Lynn is the author of A Frog Hollow Childhood: A Memoir of Hartford.
