The Red Silk Robe is a true story of a young English girl from Bristol, left without a family, who was determined to live life to the full and experience the world. You will follow her dream of being in show business, her travels, and her chance meeting with a handsome Lebanese 22 year-old in Beirut, Lebanon, which turned into a 'LOVE-AT-FIRST-SIGHT' encounter and marriage.... ...leading to her first dramatic escape from Beirut after betrayal by her Moslem inlaws... her subsequent bare survival in Bristol with her two babies - broke, alone and vulnerable... and her tragic near-death experience... ...then following her return to Beirut to survive and the glorious times for ten years... her second escape from war torn Beirut, amid tanks and riots... ...her arrival in the USA with her two young sons, illegal and broke again - her struggle to survive, travelling from State to State settling up in Dallas, Texas for twenty years......finally retiring in the beautiful Riviera Maya. Julia says, 'I do hope you enjoy The Red Silk Robe, it was MY LIFE; I needed to write it before I perhaps began to forget...''It could have been a dream, but when I look at my late husband's picture on the wall and the photo of my two sons and grandchildren in my home in beautiful Mexico, I know it was not; it really happened.' Julia dedicates this book to her two sons, Darren and Tarek and to the Father they never knew.
