I’Ll Go No More A-Roving
Praise for Somewhere I Have Never Traveled Th is fourth volume of Robert Ayres Carters autobiography takes the reader back to the 1970s. From the outside, Carters life seems conventional: he was an executive in the world of publishing and advertising, commuting between Long Island and Manhattan. Setting this work apart from the ordinariness of that sort of life is the clarity of his unfl inching revelation of his private aff airs, emotions, and thoughts. His struggles to become a writer of novels, his self-doubts, and his emotional and physical involvement with many women, and the collapse of two marriages are all described vividly with the skill of the accomplished novelist. Perhaps most poignant of all are his descriptions of his sense of loss from his separation from his two sons. -James Scanlon, Professor Emeritus of History, Randolph-Macon College
Unbroken
At first glance, the reader might think that this is yet another book of a personal journey. Indeed, it is a record of real-life events that shaped the author’s life in a way that is relevant to the world of community leadership. What makes this book unique, however, is that it started to take shape during a global pandemic – an uncertain time when people somehow knew they would never be the same again. While the effects of the last few years are still being felt, the author, by telling his story, offers hope through a series of life lessons, all stemming from the distillation of his adventures. He has narrated what he calls “trials” and “triumphs” and described in detail the particular set of travails that he faced very early on in life. He has used these experiences to inculcate values we all could learn from. The author invites readers from all walks of life to travel with him on this journey, not only back in time but also forward, into the future. Forearmed with courage and fortitude, and with hope as our greatest ally, we could all, by engaging more with the community, live a life of service to humanity – a life of self-actualization.
