A life-affirming American journey told in brisk, story-sized adventures.

Psychologist, poet, fundraiser, athlete, husband of 60 years, and Carl Sandburg Writer (2023), Tom Tenbrunsel looks back across eight decades with humor, grit, and gratitude, proving that a happy life can still make a gripping memoir. From schoolhouse courts and civil-rights backstories to NASA hallways, mountain trails, and family jam sessions, Tenbrunsel's snapshots read like conversations with a favorite grandfather who's seen everything and still believes in wonder.

Discover a memoir of joyful, fast-moving vignettes that time-travel through the author's childhood, careers, and adventures, told with a poet's ear and a coach's clarity, offering behind-the-scenes glimpses of historic moments and figures, from civil-rights milestones to space-age pioneers. Woven throughout are field-tested how-to interludes on ultralight hiking, canoeing, gardening, mindset, and more, alongside a tender love letter to family, courtship, marriage, children, and grandchildren, rendered with warmth, mischief, and memorable one-liners.

Perfect for

Readers of uplifting memoirs and narrative nonfiction; fans of Carl Sandburg's plainspoken lyricism; anyone who enjoys true stories about resilience, curiosity, and everyday excellence.

Why you'll love it

Tenbrunsel writes like he lives, curious, candid, and contagiously optimistic. His voice is personable and playful, yet grounded by hard-won wisdom from a career helping people perform and heal. The result is a page-turning mosaic: equal parts porch-story, trail journal, and master class in making a generous life.
