Turkey: a Language Adventure: Peace Corps - Bartin 1967-1969 David Garnett Turkish edition

From September 1967 until late June 1969, I worked as a Peace Corps volunteer in Bart?n, Turkey, teaching English to junior high school students. This is a memory of my time living with Bart?nl?lar (Bartinians) and teaching their children. "Turkey: A Language Adventure - Peace Corps, Bartin, 1967-1969" is not a ?normal memoir.? It is more about how the people of Bart?n taught me Turkish. Each little ?tale? is about how I learned a particular Turkish word or phrase from a Bart?nl? (Bartinian). Along the way, you will learn about how Bart?nl?lar (Bartinians) were, what I thought of them and what, I supposed, they thought of me.
