Journey Into Life, Book One Jack Williams

Journey Into Life, Book One: Prelude, is the first of six autobiographical novels chronicling the adult life of J. D. Packer from the time he is about eighteen years old to the winter of his life when he retires. His life goes through several major changes driven not by plans and career goals, but rather by being in the right place at the right time. Book One shows how J. D. Packer falls into his many and varied careers after high school when he first goes to work for a mining company in Utah, leaves that company after fourteen many years, joins a local Civil Engineering firm for about two years and then find himself and his family moving around the country with a major Construction Engineering Firm. J. D. is always on the alert for new and exciting ventures many of which takes him into career fields in which initially he has no knowledge. But through it all his wife Marilyn supports his choices and follows him into the unknown.
