Peter George Engelman, a retired CPA turned writer, writes about his beginnings in London, England during World War II. He describes his difficult life experience beginning with the intense bombing of London, where he rode out the Blitz attacks encased in a full body gas mask. Surviving the bombing was only the beginnings of trauma suffered by this man as he grew up in his new homeland of America.  From the small rural town of Atoka, Oklahoma, the Engelman family moved to Baltimore, MD where their new life began anew. From retail to real estate, the Engelman family prospered taking advantage of their new home in the land of opportunity.  After the tragedies of losing parents followed by a failed marriage, Peter talks about how emotional illness overtook his life. The struggles as a result of this period in his life brought about an awakening both spiritually and physically where soul searching led to an answer for this troubled young man who was destined to become a writer and example for others suffering the same destiny. Peter learned the meaning of "living one day at a time."  His book is interesting , insightful and a fast read.
