In 1964, Edwin and Jean Armbruster left their home in the United States to raise their family in the Panama Canal Zone, a little known American territory in the Central America country of Panama. In Canal Zone Daughter, Judy (Armbruster) Haisten chronicles her unique childhood culminating to the crushing loss when former President Jimmy Carter signs treaties that effectively eliminates her –and fellow U.S. citizens’- former home. Charming, funny, and poignant, the author captures her remarkable American story in an exotic place and time.
