From Bluegrass to Blue Water
Lessons in Farm Philosophy and Navy Leadership

The philosophy found in this work is the product of the author's childhood on a tobacco and cattle farm in central Kentucky, education at various schools, and a three-decade career in the US Navy while simultaneously contributing as a husband, father, and grandfather. The remainder of this book is separated into phases reflective of the major changes in his life: the farm, schooling, and a navy career continuum from junior officer through flag officer.
