Around The World In 80 Years

There Are 2 Parts To The Book. The First Section Covers Some Of The Important Events That Took Place Around The World From The Early Part Of The 19Th Century Up To The Years Following World War Ii. It Features The 2 Men That I Have Always Admired Both Of Whom Planned And Fought Against Tyranny. Neither Of These Men Actually Used Weapons In The Second World War But They Did What They Had To Do To Preserve Our Freedom. The 2 Men Are Sir Winston Churchill And My Father Both Of Whom Had Army Careers Dad'S Lasting For 31 Years. Churchill'S Was A Much Shorter Span Before He Moved Into Politics. The Second Part Of The Book Gives Details Of My Travels Around The World To 42 Countries. To Do This I Fl Ew A Total Of 964995 Miles Taking 1430 Fl Ights On 91 Different Types Of Aircraft. In Addition I Have Traveled Far More Than A Million Miles By Car. There Were Many Times That I Got Very Close To Having My Life Cut Short But Somehow I Managed To Survive As I Am Still Here At Age 79. It Was All Very Interesting To Me And I Hope That I Have Been Able To Convey Some Of This Excitement In What I Have Written.
