If you've read my first book, "The Jug," you'll recognize this as a continuation of that story. A voyage through the lives and tragedies of The Jug's many owners. The jug has witnessed a wide range of life's experiences, including those of royalty, poverty, cultural celebrations, domestic violence, loss of a loved one, family strife, weddings, and more. Seeing the world through the eyes of a nonliving thing, be it in a palace, a slum, a theme park, or even a classroom, might be more exciting than you ever imagined. The small jug survives the two world wars and other astounding events that changed the globe, like 9/11. From Europe, the jug travels directly to Australia, on the other side of the globe. This is the background to the whole thing. Somebody has to tell this story.


The stories in this book have been brought up to date to reflect the current state of affairs in the world, including hate crimes, Covid-19, and others.
