In his previous book, Claremont Boy (Bauhan Publishing 2014), Joe
Steinfield shared stories about a variety of subjects--family members
and other people in his life, his love of sports, travel, and the arts,
and his Claremont years. Part I of Time for Everything picks up where
that book left off, with tributes to friends and heroes and essays on
being Jewish, sports and humor, health, and politics. These pieces were
originally published in the Monadnock Ledger-Transcript.
Part II, "Thinking About the Law," deals with the rule of law, the
Constitution, and the Supreme Court. Most of the articles in this
section were previously published in The Keene Sentinel and the
Concord Monitor. These are readable essays without legalese, written
for the lay reader.
Once again, Steinfield has applied his storytelling skills to his life's
experiences, and to our legal system as well. Whatever the subject, he
writes to inform, to educate, and to provide a smile along the way. As
reader's will discover, the book's subtitle, My Curious Life, is
well-chosen.
