Around the World

This is the most unusual novel. It amounts to a series of essays - thirty in all. They are the favorite topics for Scott Barlow and his wife, Mary Ellen.
They include such headings as Napoleon, Eiffel Tower, London's War Room and Lisbon.
It all came about when a Hollywood mogul and script writer talked Scott into writing the essays. The idea of a possible motion picture was waved as bait. So Scott's usual activity of traveling the world to help local authority with local problems was put on hold. In any event, the collect of the thirty eventually qualified as a novel.
