The Extraordinary Life of Robert Barton Bunning: 1831-Present

By W. Scott Osburn

Due to an undiagnosed childhood illness in 1841 Robert Barton Bunning ages much slower than the general population. He has experienced American history across eight generations and will likely witness the exciting changes the next four generations will produce.

This book, taken directly from a transcript of a lecture given in 2025, when he was chronologically one hundred and ninety four years old, but biologically only fifty five years old, follows the life story of a unique individual who has faced challenges unknown to any other person in history.

The first segment of his lecture covers his adventures as a young man, while meeting many historical figures, and many special artifacts he gathers along the way. The second segment of his presentation chronicles a return trip to many of the old locations he made with his 5th wife. The final segment deals with a question and answer session from the audience at the conclusion of his presentation. These questions prove to be interesting and personal and Mr. Bunning's answers are thorough, insightful and profound.
