Although this book is his first attempt at published writing, he did some technical writing while working on guided missile launchers for The U. S. Navy Department.
Growing up in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia-Charles Town (not Charleston), near Washington, D. C., he became interested in American history and thoroughbred racing. Now, as a transplanted native of Louisville, Kentucky for almost fifty years, he became very interested in the famous Clark family – and their connection to American history and thoroughbred racing . Thus, he wrote The Clarks of Kentucky- as an attempt to tie the four famous generations together.
He is blessed with a great family support base with his wife Joan, two daughters, two granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and two great sons-in-law.view less
