The Middle Ages of Life Larry W Gamble

Gamble repeatedly challenges fate in this compelling memoir.



At the age of nineteen, an early marriage ends because of infidelity. He suddenly discovers himself on a dark country road, frightened to death with the possibility of his imminent demise, but reason prevails. He moves on.



After graduating from college, he and his new wife, move to Madrid, Spain. Shortly after a trip to view the Czechoslovakian insurrection of 1968, he is later escorted across Moscow's Red Square in the middle of the night by a Soviet Air Force jet pilot. Gamble contracts life-threatening amoebic dysentery and must return to the United States.



Fully recuperated, he becomes a college professor. After serving academic appointments at two different schools, he opts out for a new and competitive career in business. Gamble discovers the ladder to success is steep. He loses his job, and with it, self- confidence. Frustration shrouds the middle ages of his life.



Finally, he decides to risk everything on one last venture. Buying out his partner in a radio station, he undertakes a nearly impossible task to change his luck. As people and events challenge his ambition and vision of the future, will Gamble survive the inevitable?
