{"product_id":"pickens-9781477648018","title":"Pickens,","description":"Pickens, is the story of the author's life, as written to his son.It is told as it happened - beginning with high hopes when America was at its peak, following a rich and unmapped path, and ending in disillusionment and an America in decline.It is a picaresque tale - populated by heroes, villains, and fools - of world travels, northern canoe trips, post-30s Vermont, post-60s Oregon, post-modern Key West, and post mid-life ice hockey.It is a classic tragedy - of promise and failure - romantic, parental, and professional.It is about a love affair with architecture and women, wilderness and impossible dreams.And it is an ode to the epic in ordinary life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sidney Magee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/26\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 694\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.39d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781477648018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSidney Magee studied architecture at MIT and Yale, and has spent a lifetime involved in design and construction.
