A Life Less Ordinary
J.W. Pierce didn’t achieve peace in the Middle East, discover a cure for cancer or invent a better light bulb.
This is simply the true life story of one man’s life, a man who as a child was befuddled by all the confusing, contradictory advice being metered out by the adults surrounding him concerning what path to choose: A trade or a profession? A military or civilian life? Artist and musician or teacher? So he chose them all.
An independent man in a dependent world.
Spicer’s Circus
This the true story of a man, fluent in French, German and English Lt. Geoffrey Spicer-Simson, relegated to desk duty as punishment, for crashing his ship, and who is chosen to lead a critical mission which prompted one historian to comment;
“No single achievement during World War I was distinguished by more bizarre features than the successfully executed undertaking of 28 daring men who transported a ready-made navy 10,000 miles through the wilds of Africa to destroy an enemy flotilla on Lake Tanganyika.”
– Unknown contemporary writerc.1919
