Step into the dawn of a global era alongside Dorothy Forrant. From the industrial backdrop of Ware, Massachusetts, the 1925 high school graduate and skilled typist answered a pivotal moment in history, joining the US Diplomatic Team for the Sixth Pan-American Conference in Cuba. Her subsequent Foreign Service career unfolded across the globe, a striking departure from her humble origins.

This 200-page hardcover memoir, featuring Dorothy's letters and photographs from a century past, provides a unique window into Depression-era challenges and her own personal triumphs. Compiled and narrated by her son Michael Blackledge, Dorothy's well-documented life offers compelling historical and personal interest.
