Farewell the Winterline--both words and visual aspects."

"...enjoyed Stan's book. Though there was much
all we Woodstockites shared in common, our experiences
in our home situations on the plains were often quite
different, depending on where we lived in India. We
had no jungles or rajas - just salt-of-the-earth Punjabis
and flat farmlands.
I was amazed at how broad-minded your parents' parents
were about the "young lovers" relationship;
my folks were much more up-tight: "Oh, you're
much too young to settle down with one boyfriend; play
the field, etc." I also learned a lot about my
brother, Bruce's, trip home from India through reading
Stan's account. Bruce was not much of a correspondent."

6-2003 email from Margaret Deefholts to Stan
Brush, the author:
"Dear Stan:
I've now finished reading "Farewell the Winterline" and
it lived up to all my expectations - and then some.
I felt as though I was right there shoulder to shoulder
with you, your family and friends as you rambled through
Mussoorie and environs all those many years ago. The
photographs
brought the text to life - a wonderful album of memories
- and the many illustrations too served as delightful
embellishments to the memoir.
Thank you for a lovely journey back through time.
I hope, someday, we shall meet in person, although
I now feel as though I've known you and Beverly for
ages!"
Best always,
Margaret
