Michener And Me
A Memoir
Description
This is an intimate memoir of one of America’s most celebrated writers, James Michener, and a testament to a friendship that flourished for more than half a century.
They were friends for over fifty years–James Michener, bestselling author, and Herman Silverman, enterprising businessman. They had many things in common: Each had grown up without knowing his father; they were both practical men who made their own way in the world. Michener wasn’t easy to know, and the two often disagreed, but they shared a sense of humor and a love of good conversation. As Michener moved into a glittering circle of celebrities, he brought along his friend, while Silverman provided a stable home base in Pennsylvania for the nomadic Michener.
For the millions who have read and loved Michener’s classic novels, and for the millions who have had that one friend who cherishes and is cherished for centuries, this is a wonderful gift of love and remembrance.
