The book is originally a journal or diary of our journey to
Tripoli, Libya and the things we saw and did there. In those days
there was no such thing as a "jet set" because jet planes were not
in use, and travel to other countries was a rare event to most
people. When I set out for Africa with three children in tow, it
was quite an event in our family. Everyone was urging me to write
it down in a journal so I wouldn't forget anything, and I could
tell them all about it when I came home. This book is the result of
that journal. During the last few months of our stay in Tripoli I
decided to put it into the form of a book, with chapters instead of
so many dates and times, to make it easier to read. When my family
got together it was difficult to get a word in edgewise every now
and then, let alone telling a two-year saga. A few years ago our
children asked me to give them a copy of the book. When I reread
it, I realized that the whole story was not there. I had glossed
over some of the more difficult situations to keep the family from
worrying if we went overseas again. I n addition to that, I had not
known some of the details that were released later. I added these
in the Perspective at the end of each chapter. Our children enjoyed
the result, and they have been after me ever since to have it
published. Since there are so few books about military service
written from a wife's viewpoint, I decided to give it a try. And
here it is.
