The Journeyman of Grace G. R. Webb First edition

The Journeyman of Grace strives to bring its readers close, to feel the pain, to see the humor in human folly and to seek the path and means that empowers courage and wisdom. A fast-paced tale of a young soldier's adventures on his road to find home, the protagonist?s insightful voice grabs the ear and heart of baby-boomers and generations of youth. Geoffrey Wise encounters one calamitous adventure after another: a near-death romp down a mountainous gorge by rail (in a '55 Chevy!);a deep trek into the bowels of a cave that ends in a claustrophobic face-to-face encounter with a rattle snake; and a multitude of confrontations, escapes, and harrowing conflicts with his Sergeant Major, a New York City street walker, his Shakespeare Professor's wife, a despicable band manager of an all-girl Korean band?and close encounters of the heart which provide the dynamic fuel for his journey?a rocky road on a lonely quest to find a "Princess from Zanadu??a journey overshadowed by a mystical influence.
