A Backwards Glance is a collection of stories from the extraordinary life of an exceptional man. Follow Sid Mickle from his small-town Alabama childhood to a 40-year professional career that allowed him to travel far from home without ever forgetting its lessons. This book is more than a memoir. There is success and failure, joy and tragedy, setbacks and triumphs. These stories include vivid recollections of childhood struggles to understand his polar-opposite parents, race relations, and the culture and politics of the era of Vietnam and civil rights. They also feature reflections of a far-flung professional career filled with highs and lows, and a journey that eventually brought the author back to his beginnings. These stories read like fiction, but the events and characters are entirely real.
