What happens when you set out from the heart of England to trace your long-lost father in America? Is he pleased to rediscover the family of his youth? Is it a bit of a surprise to the American lady he's now married to? And what do their children make of the middle-aged 'interlopers' from across the Atlantic?Marjorie Lamson badly wanted to find the father her mother had left in America all those years ago, and this is her story. She felt she'd bonded with her ex-G.I. daddy, though she was only one year old when they parted. Would she ever see him again?Searches, reunions, shocks and warm welcomes await Marjorie in her quest, which takes her and her husband, Bill, across America, into Canada and across northern Europe too. It's a warm story, full of affection, history and hope, and full of the details that keep us on excellent terms with those people thousands of miles away, with whom we're united - not divided - by a shared language... and in Marjorie's case, a shared father.The author, who has retired from a nursing career, now lives with her husband and cat in a Thameside Buckinghamshire village near Maidenhead. She is an active member of the local Women's Institute.
