The Colonial, our family's business, housed employees of the Tennessee Copper Company, the major industry in the region. In 1940 I was born in the hotel, and I soon discovered the world surrounded by the hotel's endless stream of interesting characters. Whether it was the gluttonous sewing-machine drummer or my aunt who pulled the trigger, what I observed in my childhood fascinated, informed and sometimes frightened me. Leading me through all this were two brave women, my grandmother and my mother.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"In \u003cem\u003eGrowing up in the Colonial\u003c\/em\u003e, Edwin Light lovingly evokes the personalities that populated his childhood growing up in the family hotel in 1940s and 1950s in southeastern Tennessee. Family, friendships, and long-ago feuds enliven its pages. But at its heart, this memoir is a tribute to Edwin's mother and grandmother, the lessons they taught him, and the love they shared.\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e-Sharman Esarey, Principal Editor, \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cem\u003eEuropean Stability Mechanism\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Edwin H Light","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45128816099479,"sku":"9798985313505","price":1032.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798985313505.webp?v=1767904544","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/growing-up-in-the-colonial-9798985313505","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
