<p>I'm glad to see a resurgence of interest in your memoir. It is a
testimony to the ease of self-publication that you were able to do
this so well and seamlessly. I don't know what kind of editing
help you had but the result was very good for something
self-published. Typography, layout, spelling, and even grammar
"expertise" have been significantly addressed by modern electronic
publishing, but proper editing is a bit trickier. I suppose there
will soon be AI's capable of editing various genre's to a certain
degree. <br>

Your kids, and especially your grandchildren, will so appreciate
this kind of memoir. Often, local historical societies welcome a
copy too, because the memoir is fine-grained enough to appeal to
somebody doing local history, even if it isn’t a big piece of
national history.

<div class="">Today the book from Frank arrived, after I
ordered it at Amazon recently, and I have read it in
the evening. When I read the name "Kayser" of the
grandparents I thought they must have a German
background, since "Kaiser" is the German word for
emperor. (One of my German colleagues is named Kaiser
too). And a few pages later I read that they are
indeed descendants of German immigrants. Fascinating.
It was also interesting to read about the USS
Baltimore. I like the idea of writing down the story
of the own family to preserve it for future
generations. The digital world is so short-lived and
temporary.</div>
