ROBERT D. McCLINCHEY looks back at a long and fruitful life in
this memoir, beginning with his birth on the family farm in
1926.
Growing up in East Wawanosh Township in Ontario, he found plenty
of adventure-often getting into mischief with his six siblings. The
family worked together, struggled together and had fun
together.
From an early age, one of the keys to Robert's life was music,
which the family enjoyed playing together. Whenever he played the
fiddle, he was at peace with himself and others. It also led him to
his late wife of 58 years, Frances. In 1950, the two were
married.
In this candid look back at his long life, Robert remembers his
varied careers, including fisherman, pool hustler, machinist,
mechanic, ice-road trucker, gasoline station attendant,
road-builder, snowplow operator, bus driver, farmer and syrup
maker. More importantly, he explores what it means to be a husband,
father, grandfather and great-grandfather while being a "Jack of
All Trades and Master of None."
