About the Book

The author met a man when he was aged 12 in Symphony Hall in Boston, MA. He met him again at the age of 23 due to a photographic accident in Alaska. He was the World’s Greatest Traveler, Burton Holmes. Holmes asked the author to join him. They became very close friends until Mr. Holmes died about 15 years later. The author learned about using his mind and why the givers not the takers are the happiest people. An open mind really helps all through life. It makes a game out of life and it makes the winning ever so sweet indeed. Short, happy stories are great to make a day brighter.
