WHY DID GORDON WRITE THIS
BOOK?
Where do goofy ideas begin? Gordon can’t remember,
although if you are insistent he will give you a yarn to satisfy you. There is
a frail Burgett family tree that his brothers,
sister, and one ex-wife add to, sort of verify, and wonder about. Like most, he
never asked his folks much about their past, then he got curious after they
died. But it was too late since both were only children so aunts, uncles, and
the rest didn’t exist. Even the name is borrowed since his father’s father was
the quiet get of an unmarried couple. It’s said the name was given to him by
the doctor who presided at his birth—and may have adopted him, in
Gordon first put this idea on paper in 2005 but it
was behind three other books so it was visited once or twice a year, tweaked or
expanded, and it waited patiently until he had finished Niche Publishing. It made
more sense in 2008 than it did, in skeletal form, in 2005, so here it is: Your Living Family Tree! Gordon’s a historian by trade and training. This book is neither
niche publishing nor history, except in the most progressive futuristic sense.
But it is a grand (and modest) idea that could surely bring families together
and spread pride and accomplishment a long way, temporally and geographically,
thanks to digital magic.
