A Broad Abroad

This non-fiction book describes thirty-two years that the American author and her husband spent living and working in international schools in Iran, Japan, Cote D'Ivoire, and England. Along the way they raised three children, all of whom only knew the USA as a summer vacation venue until each chose to attend a US university following high school graduation overseas. The author's experiences range from humorous to tragic, dangerous to joyful, and dramatic to unbelievable. Relevant historical information connects their experiences to political and social issues defining the various countries in which they lived and worked. The family's adjustment to each new country's specific cultural aspects are discussed pragmatically as well as anecdotally. The author includes elements of her personal life not associated with her life abroad, but none the less a vital part of her complete story.
