A noteworthy detail from the book: 'Always intent on setting new personal records, exploring further and penetrating deeper, I was a stamp collector and no philately. The stamps I collected were put into my passports and opened the world to me. Some may attribute this drive to an upbringing that had deprived me of foreign travel. Perhaps, AS A HIGH SCHOOL DROP-OUT, I felt the need to prove myself "worldly" wise'(pg. 275).
