Comment: There’s a largeness of spirit that Greg McBride brings to Guest of Time. It starts in his boyhood in the American West that evolves as he becomes a witness of the Vietnam war and his return to civilian/family life. This is a memoir of an American man with a few carefully chosen personal photographs.
