Then What Happened Papa

Then What Happened Papa is a story about the generation that came to age in WWII, as well as the personal story of a man whose childhood on a Nebraska farm during the Great Depression gave him a deep love for the land and shaped his future as a researcher, educator and international rangeland and agriculture consultant. With humor and maybe a few controversial thoughts, this book reflects both universal themes and cultural uniqueness among people worldwide. It takes you to Iraq, Africa, China, Russia, Australia and other locations spanning the globe. Meet the bellowing Coast Guard Coxswain, King Neptune and the Polywogs, Susie the pet hippo, the "close call" rhino, inventive Aussie gamblers, the Mali Maiden, and American Cowboys hosting Chinese rancher for Western Barbeque, to name just a few, as farm boy finds his calling in a career serving the lands and people of the world.
