About the author

William C. Anderson served in the U.S. Air Force during World War II up through the Vietnam War, retiring as a colonel. He began writing in the 1950s, with a series of columns for MATS Flyer, the magazine of the Air Force's Military Air Transport Service (later MAC Flyer, after MATS became the Military Airlift Command).

Several of his books were autobiographical accounts of the adventures of Anderson, his wife, Dortha, and their children, Ann, Scott and Holly.

Reviews

[Rachel Grace · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book's a slightly more realistic-feeling look at a slice of Anderson's life than The Great Bicycle Expedition. It's a good book and well written, but it does have a death in it which gives the book a more somber note. If you don't mind sadness sandwiched into an otherwise humorous book, I can definitely recommend this book. If you want something entirely funny, you might want to check out another of Anderson's works.
