A true American saga, "Stand By!" From Fighter Jets to Fine Art . . . A Life's Journey takes us on a tour of a rich, eventful life. Beginning with his childhood on the bucolic banks of the McKenzie River in Oregon, Larry Evans chronicles the events that made him who he is today. We experience his search for meaning in foreign lands, and his exhilaration as a newly minted U.S. Marine learning to conquer the skies. As we read his detailed prose, we see the Vietnam War through the eyes of a fighter pilot. Today Larry has found his true place in the world-as an art dealer, husband, father, and grandfather. His journey to that place is a tale worth recounting.
