It was perhaps the last great adventure for two aviators in their mid-seventies; fly coast-to-coast in a 70-year-old airplane. Battling cancer that could end their journey at any moment and dodging violent storms they made their way across the breadth of the United States. Along the way they met extraordinary people who helped them on their way. This is a story of flying, family, faith and friends.

In Never Give Up: A Man’s Fight to Heal His PTSD, twenty-five years have passed since his discharge from the military but the old infantry lieutenant still has troubles with his demons of hatred, anger, and guilt. A chance encounter with Cathy, one of his work colleagues, leads to a renewed effort to complete the healing.

This autobiography is written on doctor’s orders. After a lifetime of good health, the author suffered a serious brain stroke at age 80. His neurologist urged an intensive effort to recall and record life experiences as a practical recovery therapy.
Once underway, a greater purpose emerged. Bob and his wife, Anneli, have six grandchildren living all over the world. They are all relatively young. When they mature, it might be an interesting and useful experience to learn how their grandparents lived in the 20th and early 21st centuries.
On balance, the author is grateful for his good fortune, and generally proud of his accomplishments. Most of all, he is leading an enjoyable life. What more could one ask?

There are a variety of subjects and techniques in the pictures within this book. Because of the spectrum absorption due to the density of water, a strobe or flash is crucial to bring out color, particularly at greater depths. Many photos in this book are taken without strobes and thus appear monochromatic but are beautiful nonetheless.

Captain Rob Modys approaches fishing the waters of Southwest Florida with science instead of luck. What I Know About Fishing Southwest Florida is the culmination of his many years, days and hours on the water searching for gamefish along beaches, bays and those hidden places of Pine Island Sound, Matlacha Pass, Estero Bay and south through the Ten Thousand Islands.
A Southwest Florida charter captain and avid fisherman, Modys would spend close to 300 days a year on the water. When he wasn’t on the boat he was teaching students in structured weekly saltwater fishing classes for Collier County Schools Adult Education and Bass Pro Shops in Fort Myers. When he wasn’t teaching he could be found speaking at seminars for the Florida Sportsman Fishing Expos and serving as faculty for the Salt Water Sportsman National Seminar Series. “The science slant alone is well worth the cost of the book. Add in everything else on scoring Southwest Florida’s key inshore species along with a smattering of stories and humor, and this book will prove hard to put down.” —George Poveromo, host of George Poveromo’s World of Saltwater Fishing
