That brief display started Green on an exciting 60 years of good, bad, and funny-but exciting-adventures where some days, he'd step in high clover, while on others, he'd step in dog poo. Still lively at age 83, Green shares his incredible adventures, funny missteps, and bizarre experiences in a humorous way that has the reader traveling alongside as he crisscrosses the country, reinventing himself a dozen times. Join Green as he becomes a 20-year-old Navy student pilot lost over the ocean at night while low on fuel, a roadhouse bouncer, radio announcer, Associated Press political writer, IBM manager, department head of a Volkswagen subsidiary, a deep-in-debt real estate investor who digs himself out of a bad place, head of his own public relations and marketing agency serving several corporate clients, spokesman for an international bank and for The Walt Disney Company, a dog rescuer, animal shelter volunteer, author and business coach.
