FYA 69: Case study: The Moonsamy family's The 17th Suitcase: Vignettes from a South African Family

The amazing story of how one family of Indian heritage survived life under apartheid and moved to America. The Moonsamy family members are humbled and thankful to those who take the time to read their stories. They said their Amazon Best Sellers book had allowed them to share their message, reconnect with old friends and opened their world to many new friends. ⇨ YOU WILL LEARN: * How the book project began and spans stories from three continents: India, South Africa and the USA * The life story's rewards and challenges, including stories of apartheid and South African history * What you need to know to create a similar family book * Work together to record a legacy of your family stories! Please note: I should have said five grandchildren not five great-grandchildren during this show.
