I have written and published four books: Where's Rick? is my latest book. Its about Vietnam Vet who returns home and goes missing 10 months later. It’s a gripping story with a shocking outcome. Behind the Walls is my third book. It tells the story of the EIFS industry which I was a part of for over thirty-five years. My research for the book included talking to over one hundred people who were connected with the EIFS industry. My second book The Game of Sales is a business book based on my experience as a sales manager. It delves deeply into the business-to-business environment of sales reps and sales management. The first book, First and Thirty is centered on a high school football team in the south during the 1970 season. The Viet Nam War was continuing and there was social unrest in the country. The book follows the lives of the football players and their friends as they undergo the trials and tribulations of being in high school during these tumultuous years.
