Synopsis

Mt: Lebanon to Vermont; Autobiography of George Haddad chronicles a life that begins amid Lebanon’s mountains and silvery olive groves, then moves to a new home in Rutland, Vermont. This nonfiction memoir follows George Haddad’s early years in Syria, his family’s customs, and the practical crafts that shaped a resilient, lifelong journey. It blends vivid scenery with personal history, offering a window into family, community, and the choices that carry a person across oceans.

The book traces Barook’s landscape and the district of Lebanon, from the cedar groves to the spring that feeds the town. It explains how silkworms, mulberry leaves, and small farms formed daily life, and how people balanced work, faith, and family. Readers will also glimpse travels to Aleppo and Damascus, the rhythms of village life, and the enduring ties between homeland and adopted home.
