A book that I'm glad I have.

Susan Phelps has a unique sense of humor that she applies to life in general and to her life in particular. She's irreverant in a sort of honorable way. Although she does admit to switching toilet paper rolls in friends' houses so that they will hang the "right" way, her firm advocacy of doing the right thing, and laughing about it, encompasses broader realms, too. I loved her memos to colleagues, such as "How does our school's ethics program differ in concept from other prisons' rehabilitation programs?" (An academic committee meeting attended by Susan Phelps must be a little off the norm.) It's impossible to make your way through this book without having a good laugh. Anyone who enjoys tongue-in-cheek commentary would like A Lady Without a Latitude

A really fun book!

"A Lady Without A Latitude" is a really fun book! Susan Phelps writes about her childhood and the world around her with humor, warmth and intelligence. I especially liked the essay, "What's in a name?" and the hilarious story she found in her grandma's cedar chest! Grace Housholde
