Short's Stories is the first in a series recounting the author's life and travels. Ronan Short was born in London, England in 1940 and raised at the British National Institute for Medical Research, where his father was in charge of the research animals.

His early life was full of adventures and encounters. This first volume--Bomb Dropping, Hampstead, North London 1940 -1949--is a humorous and witty account of his childhood in Hampstead, and his family's move to Mill Hill.

Ronan is surprised to be still writing and remembering.

Short, Ronan: - Ronan Short was born in London, England soon after the start of World War II. After twenty-three years of an event-filled youth, he emigrated by boat from Liverpool to New York, where he worked in research as he had in England. He made his way via California to Fairbanks, Alaska by 1966. He was awarded the State of Alaska poetry prize in 1968 and completed an MFA in creative writing and theater in 1972. He worked, taught, married, and raised a family in the Golden Heart city. He and his wife of 40 years have two grown daughters and four grandchildren. Ronan has traveled extensively and has lived in Fairbanks for over 50 years. (He's still looking for the road to the airport!)
