Book Overview
Tom Siewert does not claim to be an extraordinary person, but rather a normal guy who has had a wealth of extraordinary experiences, a life of incredible variety. Over the years he kept journals and wrote copious letters to the friends he made around the world. Now retired and living in China, he decided to put all of these writings together and weave them into a more cohesive narrative. May you find these tales interesting, amusing, touching, a cornucopia of feelings and experiences.
