Experiences And Prejudices

Experiences And Prejudices

Bowie states that what began as a personal memoir for his children and grandchildren became a journey of self discovery as he peeled back the layers of his life. As the title implies, the book reviews the experiences and resultant prejudices of a typical late 2th century American life and explores the feelings and thoughts that ultimately formed a personality. The experiences encountered growing up in a small southern town, influenced by loving parents, shaped by formal education, the military, his church, and capped by a gratifying corporate career are brought forth in this story of an ordinary life ordinary, but as is the case with most lives, extraordinary at the same time.
