Description
Seventy-five and retired, Henry Maxwell feels the world has passed him by. As he reflects on his life, he weighs his dreams against his regrets.
A native engineer from Pittsburgh, Henry has always believed in logic, sacrifice, and hard work. Now, with his children distant and his strength deserting him, he is left to confront the questions that have haunted him: Is he a good man? Has he done right by those he loves?
As time runs out, Henry must come to terms with what he can realistically hope for. A poignant and moving life story, this book offers an unsentimental look at a twentieth-century everyman struggling to find his place in the world.
