Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The needs and desires of the human spirit are very much the same the world over, no matter what age you were born. This book of course is fiction, I couldn't have known Nagel. However, I have researched the time, location, and culture and attempted to make it fit as if I was there. The triumph of the human spirit is ageless. If we could magically look back in time, you may have to change the name but I believe Nagel was there! This book is dedicated to my sons, grandsons and great grandsons and the free-spirit of young boys and girls the world over. Wilma R. Forester
