<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>An epic tale beginning in 15th-century Scotland and flowing through time to modern-day New York, <i>A Reason to Be </i>is a tale of loss, hope, and the transcendent power of the love that bind us to one another.</b> <p/> Douglas McCombs is an accomplished engineer and recent widower driven to discover the truth of who he is by studying the people and places he comes from. After losing his wife to a battle with Alzheimer's, Douglas is left devastated until a chance encounter with a sharp, compassionate librarian named Suzy Hamilton on the steps of the New York Public Library shakes him from the throes of grief. <p/> With Suzy's help, Douglas takes up genealogy and begins an investigation into his Scottish lineage that takes the reader on a sprawling journey through time and the remarkable lives of Douglas's ancestors--from legendary highland clan chiefs and American war generals to humble farmers and family men. As he traces his ancestry through the generations, Douglas manages to discover not only the roots he was searching for, but also a brand-new reason to be.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Norman McCombs was born in Amherst, New York, in a home built by his immigrant father.
