This is the story of part of Sam Whitby's life. He had some interesting experiences in his first 65 years, and he shared those experiences with friends and co-workers in the form of stories told on the road. Many listeners pleaded with him to write down the stories. Here he has tried to do just that. It is hoped that reading about a life will give at least some of the feelings that accompanied the real thing, the truth, mainly, as I remember it.
