Description
"Twin Tales" is an anthology series of biographical short stories. They illuminate the story of a poor Vermont farmer who grows up to voyage around the world. This is an examination of an identical twin born shortly after World War II, a time before ultrasounds. The twins would attend a one room school house and, following graduation for the University of Vermont, be commissioned in the U.S. Navy to serve in Vietnam. This is a memoir told in parables from moments throughout the life of a twin. The stories are punctual and funny as we see Ronald Allbee travel past places and people around the world, grow up in 1950's and 60's Vermont, and find an entrepreneurial spirit.
