All the was from Vernon, Texas, to the uttermost parts of the world, Calvin Miller gleans the fields of his life to produce an amazing crop of humor, insight, revelation, romance, and pathos.  Not your typical biography, this memoir is a must-read of total delight.

When I pick up a memoir, it is not because I am hungry to learn the details of another person's life (although that sometimes helps, especially if the person turns out to be as irregular as I am).  I pick up a memoir because I want to learn how other people come to their senses, learning to live the lives they have been given instead of the lives they might have planned.  If they happen to write truthfully, with generosity and humor, then I also hope those virtues will rub off on me.  Calvin Miller's book fills my cup.  You can read him for the great stories he tells or read him for the great soul he is.  Either way, he will show you the art of brinkmanship, inviting you to join him at the unsafe edges of human life where true joy is found.
