Images From A Long Life By G.D. “Don” Lillibridge

A Long Life by G. D. Don Lillibridge Introduction to Don Lillilibridge’s book: “I seem to be a rather egotistical rascal given that these writings are all about me. But my wife, Michele Shover, wanted me to draw together all the various things I have written about my life and my family, from growing up in a small town in the northern plains to fighting in the Pacific as a young Marine lieutenant to whooping it up doing research in London and Paris in the days after World War II and getting the journals and letters of my late wife, Flo, into the archives of The Schlesinger Library at Harvard University. This is sort of a jumbled up memoir, but it has most of the key elements in a rather long life (my coming birthday will be my 90th).

The Association for Northern California Historical Research (on whose board I served happily for a number of years) has kindly permitted me to publish this memoir under their imprint.

I wanted to make this account of my life available to my rapidly expanding family which is now approaching clan size, and also to all those friends and enemies of the people whom I have known and admired and appreciated over these many years, and who are still alive and alert enough to pick up a volume and peruse it (alas, not too many of these still around). So, enjoyable and pleasant reading. Carry on and all that jazz, as I sometimes say to my fellow voyagers on this planet. Don Lillibridge, Chico.”

G.D. Lillibridge is Professor and Chairman Emeritus, History Department, California State University, Chico, California. He is the author of Images of American Society, a two-volume history of the United States, and four other books, and has written essays for such journals and magazines as The American Scholar and American Heritage. His most recent prior book is Out of My Past: Speeches and Essays 1955–1997.
