In this important introduction to primary sources, readers will discover how these first-hand accounts help them learn about people, events, and time periods.

To be

From the author: And so one day, she began to write...This is a book of poems, of old and new, inspired by this thing we call life. In times of healing and rebuilding what I once lost, writing had become my way of making sense of it. This is my contribution, my way of giving back to all who never gave up on helping me find Soph again - sharing my story and writing words laced with hope. Hope - something we all could use a little more of.
