Description
by Thomas S. Dinette (Author)
A journey across time and tide-where forgotten lives surface and history finds its voice.
Experience newly uncovered stories in In the Shadow of Greatness-the expanded fifth-anniversary edition that brings previously unknown family lives into the light. From the gulf ports of France and the unforgiving swamps of Louisiana to the French Quarter of New Orleans, the perilous convoys of merchant mariners during WWII, and the enterprising streets of San Francisco, this richly researched narrative traces the lives of farmers, trappers, merchants, lawyers, sailors, and statesmen whose hopes, fears, and daring choices shaped generations.
At the heart of the book is Thomas Sherman Dinette, the living bridge between parish and city, hearth and horizon, whose memories let the past breathe again and whose life fulfilled the American dream. Deeply human and vividly told, this edition weaves together genealogy, local history, and intimate portraiture into an unforgettable story of courage, loss, and the enduring pull of home.
