Tramping To Success

About the Book

Tramping to Success encapsulates what every person strives for: a life of challenge, purpose and success.

Surviving through the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl years; prospering in business through determination and fortuitous choices; finding-and almost losing-a woman whose abilities, education and social knowledge provided the perfect complement to this Kansas farm-boy; traveling to every continent; reflecting on achievements and perceived failures-The Life & Times of Jon B. Shastid is a personal journey which mirrors the tribulations and successes of America in the 1900's. And is emblematic of what can be achieved in the 21st century.
