This anthology shows that creativity, curiosity, and self-discovery have no expiration date.Butler's extraordinary life serves as the rich tapestry of Born in 1932, his memories span from childhood views of San Francisco's Golden Gate Park and the chilling reality of Pearl Harbor, to adrenaline-charged days as a Marine Corps jet pilot during the Korean War and decades navigating the world's skies for Pan Am. After a distinguished career that included advancing Cockpit Resource Management and conducting aviation-safety research with NASA and the FAA at the University of Texas, Butler has successfully traded the cockpit for the writer's desk.
