О книге

Pegge Mackiernan was a young widow and single mother of twins working as Vice Consul in the American Embassy in Pakistan in 1951. Her husband had been an undercover CIA agent who was mercilessly killed by Tibetan border guards while evacuating newly Communist China. In her work at the embassy, she met John Hlavacek. A passionate international reporter with humble Midwestern values, John convinced Pegge to bring her children to India. They fell in love and wed in 1952, adding three more children of their own. John rediscovered the manuscript in 2000, and decided to publish the book for family and friends, but quickly found followers interested in the life of an American newspaper family. Pegge"s life and career were nothing if not spontaneous, seemingly weaved by fate"s colorful loom. Her prose style of writing is unmistakable, and transports the reader back in time, allowing them to understand and experience life as she knew it more than half a century ago. Pegge"s first memoir, Alias Pegge Parker includes four original chapters that were intended to be included in Diapers on a Dateline. John discovered the chapters in Pegge"s belongings after Diapers was already published, and after she had developed Alzheimer"s disease. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Diapers on a Dateline: The Adventures of a United Press Family in India During the 1950s (Pegge Parker Hlavacek)
