An American Woman's Life in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781490777092)

I grew up a Roman Catholic. Sent to a Catholic school, I received good education. In those days, when you passed certain tests, you were allowed to enter first grade very early. I graduated from grade school at eleven years old.

Then I was on a Catholic high school, graduating at the age of sixteen years. I skipped a grade in grade school.

My mother belonged to a Catholic organization, and our family took in foreign students to live with us. Thus, I am very eager to learn foreign cultures.

When my husband had the chance to live and work in Saudi Arabia, we jumped at it.
