Hi, I'm Rosemary I. Patterson, Ph.D.
This site is a brief guide to my novels. Please feel free to travel through my site and check out the other novels I had the pleasure of writing.
Each book cover is linked to a web page where you can order the books directly from amazon.com or xlibris. Click on each cover.
Welcome to my site...
My latest literary history is "Timber Sale" a novel about the Canadian Western Lumber Company and Alexander Duncan McRae, a wealthy entrepreneur who made his company the biggest logging complex in the British Empire. I have contrasted his life and lifestyle with those of his workers, French Canadians, Sikhs, Chinese and Japanese people who did the heavy labor to enrich the company's investors. I have covered the time era from 1907 to 1916.
My newest book is "The Way of the Supernova." This is a must have book for all people beginning or even preparing for retirement. Readers will learn how to strike the perfect balance between wellness, leisure, and purpose during what can be called now the "revitalment years" rather than retirement. People are living longer and readers will explore how to live in vitality while also leaving a legacy. These are some of the most important years in life!
