Sample Book Insights:
#1 I grew up in a castle. It was a six-bedroom house with gables, turrets, and lead-paned glass windows. It was built in the early twentieth century by a wealthy industrial baron. My father was a well-respected neurosurgeon in Boston, and my uncle was a combat veteran and adjutant general of Connecticut.
#2 I had always had an itch for adventure and independence, despite the careful sculpting of my erstwhile elders.
I was a avid marksman and had purchased my own Colt. 45-caliber pistol. I was parachuting out of airplanes and dragging my groaning buddies off to three-day treks in the Vermont mountains.
#3 I was bored at college, so I started a movie rental business with my roommate, Beeker. We bought four VCRs, thirty movie tapes, six movie posters, and a color TV. We then measured our sitting room, went into Northfield, and bought wood paneling, hardware, wall-to-wall carpet, and three plush lounge chairs.
#4 I was a senior cadet and upperclassman, and I was strong as a bull.
I was never going to be a fighter pilot, and I knew it. I had to find something else I would be happy with.
