"Eighty-two Revolutions Around the Sun" is a unique first-person account detailing the wild ride to attain an accomplished lifetime and the development of one's personal character during that journey. This book is the life story of an open-minded and progressive person who worked feverishly in the field of conservation biology and helped save habitat for humans and wildlife. "Eighty-two Revolutions Around the Sun" is 8 x 10-inches, has 452 pages, and it contains a lifetime of photographs.This Memoir chronicles a long lifetime; one filled with adventure, adversarial peril, joy and excitement, and the reward of unrestrained personal growth over time. It includes the unabridged ups and downs of youth; the ascent of life's slope through the susceptible teenage years; continuing that climb to safely reach maturity; the hardships of living and raising a family on a subtropical barrier island; reaching a level of personal success and satisfaction as a result of the journey; attaining the summit of life to enjoy comfort and happiness in late middle age; and finally, the uncontrollable hurried descent of a satisfied elder close to life's end. But, at this point I am still chugging.
