A sensitive, freckle-faced child discovers the value of her uniqueness in a world where others are bigger and stronger. As her experience grows and her perspective broadens, she gains appreciation for pleasant surprises and gentle victories. Savour images of pink paint and a shoeshine box, adven- tures with a biplane and a water flosser, and discoveries of a mystery building and hidden art. Each ordinary object and situation evokes an extraordinary sentiment. In this first collection, Kathy White shares vignettes and essays describing up-close encounters from childhood to retirement. Her wistful reflections explore her quest for originality and competence, fostered through kindness and support.

This work, in three volumes, takes the documented ancestry of Mary Kathleen Kirkpatrick to the Gateway Ancestor and then from the Gateway Ancestors to notable historical figures in medieval history. To name just a few, in these pages you will find two different English descents from King Edward III, Charlemagne, Alfred the Great, St. Margaret, St. Fernando, St. Vladimir, and St. Louis. Also, included are Kenneth MacAlpin, William the Conqueror, St. Margaret of Scotland, King Henry II and his queen, Eleanor of Aquitaine, the semi-legendary Viking leader Ragnar Lodbrok as well as documented Vikings such as Eric Blood Axe, Harold Fair Hair, and Rollo the Dane, with many other kings and queens of medieval Europe. These volumes contain thousands of footnotes and references. The references that are used, in most cases, are the same as those used by hereditary societies to track the ancestry of their applicants. These are listed in the bibliography at the end of each volume.
