In the final segment of the trilogy, the author reveals the rest of his story-before, between, and after the events of his previous books. This far-ranging, entertaining account begins with a Minnesota childhood, amid a not- so -ordinary family with its fun, its struggles, and its surprises. Picking up the tale after RW's first military tour of duty, he returns home to find new conflicts as he rejoins his family and begins a family of his own. And finally, the journey continues through the adventures, joys, and sorrows that inevitably find our hero as he walks the path of a retired naval commander. With love lost, love found, and the blessings of family, discover the power of a cup half full on an extraordinary life-and the conclusion of a saga that began Because Mom Asked.
