The Third Fred: An Autobiography

by Fred Stevens

My paternal grandfather was the descendant of New England Yankees. My other three grandparents were descended from recent immigrants from Germany, Denmark, and Norway. I was lucky to grow up in a large family with 15 pairs of aunts and uncles and 59 first cousins. I am the oldest of five two brothers and two sisters. In this book, I recount the major events of my life beginning with childhood, proceeding through adolescence, and including my adult life thus far. My views of science, sports, religion, politics, and work are summarized as well. My goals in this book are 1) to evaluate my own life and inform the remainder of my existence and 2)to provide a resource for my nieces and nephews and later generations of descendants.
