A propos de cet article

New condition glossy color illustrated softcover wraps. Includes Praise for Memory Road; Author Dedication; Author's Note; Prologue; Acknowledgments; and Preview of Dick Schmidt's The Boy and the Dolphin: Prologue and Chapter One, with two black-and-white illustrations. A removable rectangular 4 inch by 1 1/2 inch "Boca Raton Regional Hospital Marcus Neroscience Institute" sticker is neatly affixed to the lower section of the front cover. Signed and inscribed by the author, Dick Schmidt, with thin blue Sharpie at the lower section of the title page. "After serving his country with distinction as a senior officer with the Central Intelligence Agency, Stewart Masterson is rewarded with detention in an assisted living facility by a government agency concerned with his advancing Alzheimer's disease. Longing for his late wife of forty-seven years, Masterson makes his getaway from the facility and finds himself on the road with limited resources, trying to negotiate his way from Florida to his daughter in Maryland, the only place where he feels he can find happiness and relevance. With three U.S. government agencies and the intelligence arms of unfriendly countries in hot pursuit, Masterson relies on a lifetime of training instincts to avoid recapture, proving he is a lot more on the ball than his pursuers had expected. His northward travels up U.S. Route 1 lead him from one adventure to another until the inevitable conclusion when his fate will be decided by who finds him first and how he responds. This charming, suspenseful, and sometimes ironically humorous story gives us a glimpse into a world that is far more relevant to the brave individuals facing personal limitations that we could possibly imagine." - from the rear outer cover. "What an enjoyable read! Memory Road is cleverly crafted with a timely plot involving believable characters and real-life challenges. The story follows a retired CIA agent's quest for home as he battles his most formidable enemy -- himself. Schmidt has written a compelling human story that, instead of focusing on disability, accurately highlights compassion and capabilities." - James E. Galvin, M.D., MPH, Neuroscientist. ". a fascinating page-turner about one man's journey to find home. Masterson is a relatable character who, despite personal challenges and dangerous obstacles, perseveres toward his final destination with the help, or hindrance, of an interesting cast of characters." - Jim Nantz, CBS Sports, Founder, Nantz National Alzheimer Center.…

Description de la boutique

Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
