This memoir offers a charming, nostalgic look back into Margaret Mordecai's life in Nicaragua in the fifties and sixties. She portrays that era as the glory days of the little country when there was strong economic growth, foreign enterprise was welcomed, industrious, well-educated ex-patriots were arriving, and cotton was becoming the crown jewel of the export economy. Her husband and his partner had played a significant role in this latter accomplishment.Margaret Mordecai provides an interesting, intimate account of her family's storybook experiences exploring a new and different culture and lifestyle. She paints a vivid picture of the incredible beauty of the country, the charm of its people, the fast-paced social life, and the political events that formed the backdrop of her personal story.
