"Interrupted Journeys: A Memoir of an Army Brat"


My memoir has finally been published! Is is available on Amazon in both soft cover and on Kindle for $2.99. Or from the author. You may email me at bfifield@cfl.rr.com if you'd like a discounted copy. Here is a sample from the opening of the book:

Our maid Eliska gazed at me with large brown eyes. "Babala," she told me with tears streaming down her cheeks, "You will write? Right? Promise me you'll contact me after you return to the States." (Babala was how Germans pronounced my name at the time). Eliska was my mentor, the one I told all my problems to. Without Eliska, I don't know how I'd survive moving from school to school, changing friends and dealing with German boys who beat up American kids at the school bus stop.

I nodded my head in reply for what else could I do? I was only nine years old at the time.
