Time Past . . . Time Present

In this first-ever collection, Mark Allen North shares 25 short pieces, including several stories, a children's fable, and a wide variety of personal-experience essays spanning childhood through his years in the aerospace industry. This mix of memoir, humor, tribute, and appreciation covers a wide range of topics, each looking at the world we inhabit, past and present.

Writing many of these as he approached his 80th year, North offers a nostalgic look at the simple truths that shape who we are.
