Village in the Meadows by our Treasurer, Malcolm R. Pfunder is out!

“Village in the Meadows (Çayiriçi Köyü) in the Black Sea region of Turkey was Malcolm Pfunder's Peace Corps site and home for nearly two years in the 1960s. These memoirs about his time there spring from a desire to share the memorable, often humorous stories of the things that he did, and that happened there.”

The book also describes Pfunder’s impressions from re-visiting his village in 1975, 1999, 2002 and 2004.
