An Inventor's Life Volume II

Mama Kukan ... Unbelievable? You must read this book to believe... Inventor Fred Ferino shares his life story and thoughts about the Earth, and our responsibility for preserving it. How did our planet come into existence? Learn about Mama Kukan, the strange, giant planet... out of which our planet exploded billions of years ago. See Ferino's many inventions, including the award-winning "Carfly," his futuristic gasoline/electric hybrid car, originally built in 1973, decades ahead of its time.... From an impoverished life in Communist Yugoslavia and Italy, and growing up during WWII, Ferino made his way through life with the skills of his mind and hands. Ferino follows a dream to become an American, and escapes, with his young wife, to South America. Fate leads them to the promised land through hard work, determination, and a fortuitous meeting. Ferino's career as a musical instrument technician is balanced with his lifelong devotion to inventing. He has produced an amazing variety of working ideas that have earned him awards and acclaim in competitions, shows, and conventions throughout the southwestern United States. --- excerpts from book's dustjacket
