Publisher's Synopsis
We are all a link in the chain of generations, a connection between ancestors and descendants. The interesting part about this interconnectedness is each individual story that lies inside every living, breathing person. How they began, and where their years of living have taken them, are the intriguing factors. In More Links in the Chain, Margaret Weise deals with several more relaxed recollections concerning her mother, the extended family, and herself. Sometimes she participates and in others is a spectator, although always a very interested one, retelling the human dramas first learned through hints and glances, silences, and nods of warning, in her own inimitable, often amusing, Australian style. More Links in the Chain is a book of stories about an average family functioning more or less like most other families, perhaps a little less. You may even recognize some of your own family depicted within these pages. This is the portrayal of an everyday clan, but not as you may know it.
