I read this book cover to cover and couldn't put it down. Mrs. Cavett's lived a very full life; One full of adventure and endless stories. It's almost impossible to believe that one person could experience so much, but Dorcas has and it's all in this book. From becoming the first female Marine, to trailblazing new areas for instructional television, Dorcas keeps you captivated with her gift of storytelling as only a true "Cavett" could. Step aside Dick . . . your step-mother has a story to tell. Covering two World Wars, Prohibition, the Great Depression and life in the 60's, "My First 81 Years" will keep you captivated. I highly recommend this book to anyone who appreciates true human nature.
