A Short Glimpse of a Long Road

Book excerpt: "The building at the corner of Tilton Avenue, while unassuming at first, houses countless stories within its walls that have accumulated over the years. It is one of the many inspirations for "A short glimpse of a long road", a moving memoir from Dr. James L. Hutchinson. This memoir contains stories and poems told from the heart that will captivate the reader from the very first page. They tell of a life well lived that crosses the paths of fascinating people from Shreveport, Louisiana, to European cities of Paris, Rome, and Naples, and the Middle Eastern city of Casablanca. The readers will find their way back to local and beloved cities in California: San Jose, Hillsborough, and most of all, San Mateo where the house at the corner of Tilton Avenue brings it all together through Dr. Hutchinson, the man at the center of it all."--
