Veteran Memoir

The Passion of Private White describes the meeting of two worlds: the world of the fiercely driven biologist and anthropologist Neville White, and the world of the hunter-gatherer clans of remote northern Australia he studied and lived with.

For many years now, I have wanted to write about my life, and especially about some of the people in my life. I'm sorry to say that due to my lack of faith in my writing skills, I gave up many times. In those days, I thought I wouldn't live past 60 years old, but here I am - 90 years old, and still going strong. Well, not so strong, but people are surprised when I tell them how old I am! And would you believe it - due to the encouragement of a few of my family, friends, VA doctors, nurses, and counselors, I have completed this book about the first 17-and-a-half years of my life.
