Phantom Father: A Daughter's Quest for Elegy - Hardcover
by Sharon Estill Taylor (Author)
This project is a labor of love manifested in a lifelong father-quest. It is, simply, something I had to do. As war babies whose fathers never came home to us, we received instead a yearning for something missing but ever-present. To that, I added a burning desire to know my father. This project is about honor and sacrifice, another way to be a daughter, and a tribute to the eternal spirit of father-love across time and reality.
