Book Details

A Journey Through Life and Business

Fred was born into a middle class family in 1936. He takes us along his life’s journey as he grows into manhood, marries and becomes a nationally known land surveyor and author of technical articles. He has crafted a tale where he takes the reader on his life’s journey from the end of the Great Depression, World War II, the decades of the 50’s and 60’s to the present.

His narrative takes the reader through his early years as a child growing up during World War II and its aftermath. The story then continues as the author enters the world of professional practice and business. This is all told in the context of family, culture and world travel. Some of his stories will make you smile, while others may bring a few tears.

He has written a refreshingly candid, no-holds-barred narrative regarding school, business, country and culture.
