Publisher's Synopsis
In this memoir, Dr. John McDonough has gone back in remembrance and found himself within the familiar domains of place and family. Beginning with a summary narrative that describes his early childhood to adult years, he proceeds through time beginning at age nine, relating school, work, college, medical training, family and professional life experiences. And he does so in an open and honest way, allowing the reader to comfortably follow along. It is a story well told in chronological chapters, time moving forward through the ages, experiences touching on important occurrences, encounters and surroundings.More importantly though is the voice of Doctor John within the pages - observant, humble, expectant, humorous and reverent. He is an author telling his own story - looking down at himself from a long distance, connecting all the people, places and critical moments.
