Resumen del Editor
Sailing the "Seven Seas," and crossing the Arctic Circle. A deadly rescue attempt in fifty to one-hundred foot swells. Floating up the Saigon River during the throes of Vietnam, surviving repeated and brutal attacks from rockets and gunfire.
Being interrogated as a spy in Cold War Berlin. Playing in the big leagues in the NY Stock Exchange. Rubbing elbows with actors, presidents, celebrities and elites from all over the world. Building an amazing family and leaving a legacy. It may sound like the wish-list of a well-loved literary character named "Walter." But this is just a sampling of the life of a real-life adventurer and liver of life, Andrew Sferra.
Whether it's his absurdly funny and endearing childhood in Yonkers, an ambitious career in structural, electrical, or nuclear engineering, or his harrowing experiences in wartime, you'll find there's something for everyone in this unique take on the idea of a memoir.
A collection of memories, of course. An autobiography, definitely. But with a life spanning over a half-century with suspense, intrigue, and wonder, Andrew has amassed a great amount of not only adventure tales, but valuable, funny, and poignant life-lessons. Journey with him as he takes you through what he calls "The Gateway to the World." But hold on tight. It's gonna be a bumpy ride.

1975 is a time of change in America. The Vietnam War is ending. Muhammad Ali is fighting Joe Frazier. And in the small town of Monta Clare, Missouri, girls are disappearing. When the daughter of a wealthy family is targeted, the most unlikely hero emerges—Patch, a local boy, who saves the girl, and, in doing so, leaves heartache in his wake. Patch and those who love him soon discover that the line between triumph and tragedy has never been finer. And that their search for answers will lead them to truths that could mean losing one another.

Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn’t just any thirteen-year-old: she’s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found.

Our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions—and feel incredible today—is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function—the most important and least understood factor in our overall health. As Dr. Casey Means explains in this book, nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how well the cells in our body create and use energy. To live free from frustrating symptoms and life-threatening disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create “good energy,” the essential fuel that impacts every aspect of our wellbeing.
