INTRODUCTION
The one good thing about
growing old is that you get
your way. The new leaders of
the Tribe (they refuse to call
themselves Elders until I have
passed on, which should be soon, if
I’m lucky) want me to record my
knowledge for future generations.
Bah! What knowledge they need is
to be found with sweat and blood,
not some letters on a page. But
the future is a great unknown,
and they may have a point. To
make them happy, I’ve written
down what I feel will be
important. (The important words
being “what I feel will be
important.”)
They want me to write my
memoirs. Fine. I’ll do it.
But as the song goes, I’ll do
it my way. And I’m old
enough that I will get my way.
