Title: WordSmith - Writing a Way Home

Author: R. Thomas Collins

ISBN: 1928928064

Description:

A chronicle of journal entries written between 1980 and 1988 by a journalist who went to work for an oil company. This journey of discovery was a confrontation with the realities of modern industrial life, while enabling the writer to confront some of the causes and consequences of his family’s past. When edited later, the author found his journal also revealed a story of redemption for a father and son.
