In his fifth memoir, award-winning author William L. McGee recounts the series of unplanned events which took him from cowboying in the west to the upper echelons of the 1950s world trade business. Or as McGee likes to say ... from Levis and boots to Brooks Brothers suits. In 1950, on a visit to his new bride's hometown in the East for the holidays, McGee is offered a job selling Willy's Jeeps. He discovers he has a talent for sales and deal-making - and he likes it. He makes the decision to leave cowboying, and he never looks back. As someone once said, life appens when you're making other plans. Written in his signature spare and straightforward style, the author delivers a chronological account of the early lessons he learned to be successful in sales and as an entrepreneur ... lessons he would never forget in the competitive world of exports/imports, and later in his 32-career in the entertainment business.
