In this collection of columns and essays, LaVerne Hammond proves the old adage it's never too late -- over and over again. Why not continue to dress fashionably, flirt, do something for the first time, keep fit and, yes, even date into your Eighties and Nineties? LaVerne did. And she wrote about it. Permeating these pieces -- the first was published when she was 86 -- is her stubborn conviction that life truly isn't over until it's over -- and maybe not even then.
