elsie nurmi rides to her minnesota school in a prairie wagon speaking no english, yet she becomes a u.s. protocol officer escorting dignitaries such as astronaut frank borman and edward marcus (neiman-marcus) abroad. she meets heads of state, a pope, views moon launches, and preps presidential visits. Yet when diagnosed with alzheimer's, she begins her most dreaded—and transcendent—journey.

traveling down untested roads, barbara begins to explore a different language—one of intuition, mental telepathy, inner listening, and love—encountering a new world that continues until her mother's death ... and beyond.

elsie at ebb tide is a story of love and a willingness to explore the deepest communication possible: soul to soul.
