O knihe
In this memoir of a life full of obstacles to overcome, Dick Gilcrist recounts his life from his earliest memories in Anchorage at the age of five to the present moment, now retired in the state of Washington. Though Dick faced numerous challenges throughout his life, especially in his childhood, he never gave up hope. His story is testimony to the age-old adage that the storm will pass-and only after a storm can you see a rainbow.
