DAYS OF MY FATHERS is a nonfictional tale of the lifestyles of my father's generation; particularly the Igbo tribes which occupy the eastern Nigeria geographical location. The book is a collection of native phenomena that occurred before the 80s. It is a reality creation and a partly onstage celebration of Chinua Achebe's celebrated fiction "Thing Fall Apart.”
DAYS OF MY FATHERS is a nonstop read that evolves a nostalgic feeling among adults who witnessed the period in question, and leaves awe and doubt in the minds of the younger generation. It is compiled to assist the lgbos and their children, especially those in diaspora, understand their origin.
In the educational sector, it is absolutely appropriate to include the knowledge of culture traditions, literature and history of the lgbo race all embedding practical illustrations and explanations into the curriculum. The book also describes the lifestyles of other nationalities interrelated with the Igbo nationality. The case study of expressions are mostly the traditional lifestyles of some regions where I was raised: Amucha, Umuchima, Umuozu, and Nkwere, all in Orlu region of lgbo land. It also covered some areas in Etiti, Owerri, Umuahia, Okigwe etc. In a nutshell, the goal of this book is to keep record of some of these lifestyles that are quickly fizzling out and to preserve such for the unborn children.
