Set during World War II and the early fifties, Safe Harbor a Boy's Story chromicles my struggle as a lonely boy in a dysfunctional family. It began as a memoir for my children, but when completed, I realized it was much more than that. Its about victory over abuse, not physical, as in "A Child called It" and "This Boy's Life" or an odd family's love in "The Glass Castle." It's about emotional abuse...the worst kind.
Children don't choose their parents or status. Some find nurturing parents. Some don't. Some resist or run away. I was trapped. Dad's drunken sprees, constant moving, arguing by parents in a loveless marriage, and mind games played at their children's expense, all seemed normal to me. My story is about surviving in such a family and sharing the examples and results of life lessons learned, hoping to encourage others when all seems lost.
Bill Reed was too young to be part of the Greatest Generation that fought in World War II. Today, as their boy contemporary on the home front, he is grateful for the uprooting that took him from coast to coast. It created his lifelong love for America and a deep admiration for the patriotism and dedication to victory shown by those on the home front in those years. He shares that in the book. Bill settled in Memphis, Tennessee where he and his wife Glenda raised three children. He graduated from The University of Memphis in 1956 and is now retired after a career as a merchandising executive. His hobbies are Golf and writing.
