Publisher's Synopsis
This powerful page turning collection of short stories are meant to tug at your heart, bring you to tears and laughter as well. The author who served as an infantryman in Vietnam, will have you standing next to him as he faces the Vietnam Memorial in Washington, DC. You will be moved, as you see the wall through his sea of emotions, while he seeks forgiveness. He will have you laughing and cheering with him at his grandson's baseball game. Tag along with them on their fishing trip. Find out how a man with just a third grade education could be his mentor, and also hold a PhD in the things that really matter. You will be surprised to hear about that same mentor's greatest Christmas, while living in Chicago during the Great Depression. You may experience a cold chill go up your spine as you sit through a monsoon rain storm in Vietnam with him, or as he lays his head down in the warm mud he's using as a pillow after he finishes his perimeter watch. Your mouth may water at the smell of fresh pies baked in a small restaurant in New Mexico, as he travels through this "Land of Enchantment". You may laugh as you hear how this city boy learns to ride like a cowboy. This collage of short stories will capture your interest as well as your heart.
