Magnificent Memories of an Ordinary Man Tim Yoder

Coming of Age, Work, Adventure & Family

From the origin story of my youth in a modern western boomtown, to the discovery of a family secret dating back to WWII France this memoir has broad appeal. Chapter subjects include a search for a vanished Spanish señorita beginning in Barcelona, a daring nighttime canyon decent in central Arizona, a view into teaching 8th grade American History, a high school date in San Diego, and a 4000 mile motorcycle journey through the Rocky Mountains.

For those interested in human development, education and teaching, youthful exploits, small town experiences such as mine in Fountain Hills, travel, and WWII and genealogy -- you'll enjoy this read.

This is a story of another little life. My life. But I found adventure in this little life. I proved that by forging through, with a decent measure of respect for others and some independence, it was possible to cut my own memorable path. Sharing this memoir, it is my hope to prove that a small voice can have a long echo.
