"As I Remember"
"AS I REMEMBER, STORIES OF EASTERN MONTANA'S PIONEERS"
-
Back in the 1960's my mother interviewed over 160 of the original settlers to Eastern Montana and published their
stories in the Glendive newspaper. In 2006 I decided it was time to get them into a book, so I took the winter off
and collected, sorted, typed, researched, edited, and got others to help with proofreading, typing, publishing etc.
The result was two beautiful volumes of these fascinating stories. At times I wished I had never started the
project, but ultimately it was immensely rewarding, especially seeing Mother's excitement and amazement at the
success of the books. More information is available on our website for the books, www.As-I-Remember.com.

of the particular year.
