"Take heart. It's never too late (or too early) to do something grand, something noteworthy...or something really stupid. With entries for every age from 4 to 90, When I Was Your Age tells all about the lives and deeds of the great and notorious. Some lives peak early (Billy the Kid), then follow a steady downhill trend. Other lives blossom late (Grandma Moses). Some familiar names (Harry Truman) arrive in middle age as abject failures, then unexpectedly rally. And a few favored individuals (Tiger Woods) start out auspiciously and go on to even greater triumphs. You never know."Washburn, Mark is the author of 'When I Was Your Age An Irreverent Guide To Who Did What and When, At Every Age', published 2006 under ISBN 9781402207136 and ISBN 1402207131.
