In this episode of the Open Forum in the Villages, Florida, host Mike Roth interviews Christine Morris Campbell, an author and long-time resident. The episode delves into her background, from her origins in Yorkshire, England, and her education at the University of London, to her adventurous life that brought her to the United States over 50 years ago. Christine shares the inspiration and research behind her three historical fiction books: 'The Watchmaker,' 'The Gold Miner,' and 'Journey to Exile,' all available on Amazon. She also reflects on her wide-ranging experiences, from working in personnel and dental clinics, to teaching English in Ukraine. Interspersed with an Alzheimer's tip from Dr. Craig Curtis, the episode gives insight into the vibrant life within The Villages and encourages listeners to explore Christine's meticulously researched novels.
