Publisher Info
Dorrance Publishing. InquiryIn this touching memoir, Beverly Miller tells the incredible story of her mother Margaret, a strong and sassy woman who was both mother and father to five children. She began her life abandoned in a basket in San Francisco. She then became an orphan of the state until adopted by a wealthy family at age three and grew up in the life of the rich and famous. She met and soon married a handsome sailor, had her first child, and came to Connecticut to live. She never saw California again. Her life deteriorated, and she was abandoned by her husband who threw a dollar on the kitchen table, leaving her with four children under the age of seven and pregnant. You will read about his appearance after twenty-one years and his desire to bring back his four younger children after leaving his wife. He never divorced Margaret.
