Life, Love, Joy, Sadness and Maturity in the Mid Twentieth Century The Windward Side is the culmination of one man's pursuit of happiness, an endeavor through land, air, and sea, that has taken him through various obstacles, snags, landmines, and higher education, but it is a pursuit that has rendered him wiser, constantly companioned by his heavenly father, and ultimately, fulfilled. Whether young or old, readers of all ages will delightfully occupy the passenger seat as the author steers them through his tales of life, love, joy, sadness, and maturity. You are invited to join the author as he skillfully pilots the ship of his experiences through rough waters, tumultuous terrain, and harrowing weather on the windward side of one rural boy's island.
