Memoirs of a Banker's Daughter, Growing up with Bean Cakes and Koalas (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780359707744)

These memoirs are the amazing cultural and social journey of a young adult exploring the world during an iconic and historic time in the 20th century. Join the author through an intense, visual, and mystic journey in Asia, Hawaii, Australia, and Switzerland, including adventures through the Middle East. As a banker's daughter, Tracie was exposed to the political climate of the 60's with the Vietnam war and the Nixon era. Her sense of humor and quest for adventure help to bring these memorable moments to life during her crucial years growing up overseas as an American learning to grapple with diplomatic relationships. Her journey takes a different turn when she tries to escape the world of politics at the age of 17 for two years in a boarding school in the hills of Australia. For anyone who has an interest in travel and history tinged with the American politics spanning the mid-1950s through the tumultuous '60s into the early '70s, this book is certainly a must.
