He survived his father’s suicide, brother’s murder, two divorces, alcoholism and upheavals in employment. He took communion with Bill and Hillary Clinton, shook hands with Muhammad Ali, met and married his life’s love and best friend, and has three beautiful children. He went snorkeling in the Caribbean, Barbados, the Bahamas and freshwater springs of Florida, cruised throughout the Virgin Islands and attended 30 major rock concerts. He details stories of modern swashbuckling adventures which have moments that will leave you in shock and awe. But there is so much more in Picking Up the Crumbs, a book bursting with tales of love and heartbreak, success and disappointment, tragedy and wonder, evil and beauty all told vividly with humor, emotion and insight. The author states simply, “I’ve done many things in my life. This is my story.” About the Author Hugh Walters is a retired and unrenowned philosopher, poet, and historian with a BS in Philosophy from Frostburg State. A wanderer, an adventurer.
