Ordinary People, Extraordinary Elections: A Memoir of International Democracy Builders Volume 2

Meer over het boek

Lois Ann Nicolai is the author of a three-book Memoir Trilogy. This second book in her trilogy is ORDINARY PEOPLE, EXTRAORDINARY ELECTIONS; A MEMOIR OF INTERNATIONAL DEMOCRACY BUILDING. It is the story of the fifteen years she spent traveling into developing European countries helping the OSCE/PAE create new democracies. It is an enjoyable and enlightening book for all ages to enjoy. The countries she spent two or three assignments in were Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo, Moldova, Republic of Georgia and Petropavlovsk, Kazakhstan. In her final chapter she invited five men and five women colleagues to each write an essay about one of the most interesting missions they participated in as election observers and registration officers. Their stories are amazing. It is the authors desire to succeed in inspiring high school officials to encourage their high school students to choose to read these three books, which are true accounts from 1988 through 2014. This was a very remarkable, historical era as communism ended and global democracies were evolving.
