Jane A Memoir

"Across the landscape of her life, Jane Stanley experimented, explored, won, lost, and ultimately prevailed. The turbulent times were, as if by grace, laced with joy and kindness. This story reflects those times honestly and poignantly...sometimes causing a reader to laugh, sometimes cry, and sometimes say "I don't believe it." Having lived in full view of it at times, I believe it to be true. This woman has lived an unusual and remarkable life. This beautifully written memoir by Jane Stanley is a compelling story of an intriguing life. After all the ins and outs and ups and downs of her life, and coming out on top, Jane Stanley is a living testament to William Faulkner's dictum about a man "not merely enduring, but prevailing." Read this book, and you will be better and wiser for it. Jane Stanley has been a teacher, principal, restaurateur, clothier, writer, publisher, stable operator, curriculum specialist, fund raiser, consultant, entrepreneur, and minister"--from the back cover.
