Synopsis

IS THAT ALL THERE IS? is the story of an American life that begins under less than auspicious circumstances in small town Middle America, adds a pinch of Ivy League and serves as “the thread of personal experiences” to chronicle the real history and culture of contemporary America. Through interesting, entertaining, geographically wide ranging and diverse experiences with family, religion, different socioeconomic and racial groups, politics, business and the military over a period of years, multiple pictures of the changing and challenging life in America are developed. In Part III our “thread,” Hank, continues weaving his way through more trials and successes in business through advancement in corporate America while expanding his geographic, cultural and other experiences from the U.S. to include Asia, Australia and Europe. Through entertaining life experiences, changes that have affected us and gotten us to where we are today are revealed to, hopefully, light a spark of initiative to encourage readers to desire to continue to read, learn and think about the faith, culture and values that made America great. This book and other installments should be interesting to older Americans who will identify with much of it, as well as younger Americans interested in their country’s history and how it evolved into the America they are confronted with today. _______________________________________
