Beginning with his first memories, when he was only four years old, the stories continue through the beginning of life on his own at the age of fourteen, with an eighth grade education during the Great Depression, all the way through his life until the present - his eighty eighth year.
The stories illustrate how it is possible to gain the knowledge to accomplish great things as these wonderful tales document some of his many inventions, a level of knowledge that allowed him, over a period of years, to design and build, among many other things, what is now the largest, most successful Lightweight Aggregate factory in the entire world.
It also includes stories about performing in rodeos, alligator hunting, bill fishing, his love life and many other interesting subjects. They include his travels to Cuba and Honduras before and after the devastating Hurricane "Mitch" that caused so much damage to the region.
