A London Scrapbook - Softcover

Within Polly Grose’s living room fireplace, packed with large specially bound scrapbooks, are the crystals of her memoir. Pasted on those pages are the photographs, political clippings, and bits of letters and cultural programs that spark the memories of the author’s life in London as well as those of her childhood, marriages, parenting, and career in theater and public affairs administration.Here is a story of a mid-life Minneapolis working woman who bids farewell to her family and friends to launch a new life in London. What possessed a firmly rooted community leader to make such a decision? Combine one part adventure, one part risk-taking, one part anglophilia, and several parts of falling in love with an Englishman to find the answer.
