ELIZABETH MULDROW says of retirement that it frees one to be busy, in her case to write and to travel. The stories in this collection grow out of her recent wanderings, in Spain, in the South of her husband's heritage, the Northeast of her own childhood and the Midwest of her first ventures into the wider world. Professionally Muldrow has taught social studies and English language arts in Pennsylvania, Ethiopia, and Colorado. An ordained Presbyterian clergywoman, she has designed bi-lingual curricula for remote tribal schools, written for denominational journals, served on regional and national committees and resourced gatherings nationwide.
