About the Book

These are selected stories from my life that have been inspiring and entertaining to others who have read them as individual articles. They cover different topics, including raising children and my relationship with each one of my children, getting seasick, developing imagination, hunting and fishing, and the family dog.

The stories demonstrate how attitude and determination play a part in everyone's life, and how set goals can be achieved regardless of a person's age or how long it may take. There are inspirational quotes and historical research throughout the book that add interest and insight to the stories involved. It is a fun, informative book that can easily be read in a day or enjoyed slowly one story at a time.
