I WAS THERE

The thrust of this book is unusual experiences and observations garnered from residences in China Peru and Canada; extended trips through Europe; a Mediterranean Cruise touching Turkey and Algiers as wall as European ports. An historical bent took him through the Navajo Nation historical New England - in autumn - followed by visits to western and southwester Spanish missions of the 17th and 18th centuries. Six of the best called The Crown Jewels are included. I WAS THERE brings out pertinent historical information that enhances the narrative. It also includes experiences in prowling the Pacific in time of war aboard a small seaplane tender.
