The Wager Nobody Cared To Win

About the Book

This is the biographical story of an average person who grew up with a serious attention-and-concentration problem at a time when nobody knew what that was. In his dreams, he wanted to be a baseball player, pilot, soldier, and a hero. Despite his attention-defi cit / hyperactivity disorder, he was able to accomplish more than what he pictured in his wild dreams. The armies of the United States and South Vietnam commended him repeatedly. However, national corporate giants in the United States, involved in illegal imports, wished he never existed.
