Follow a San Francisco doctor who served as a combat medic in Europe in World War II as he travels the world with his wife, Gwen, in the years following the war. For six decades, John and Gwen Kerner made ninety-plus trips to more than sixty countries and six continents.


In this captivating chronicle, John vividly recalls an innocent, bygone time for travel, the 1950s and '60s when airlines pampered every passenger; travelers made innocent, lifelong connections with complete strangers outside of train stations and in restaurants; and many cultures were still untouched by hordes of foreign tourists.
