Lt. Col. Wayne K. Blickenstaff
Having achieved his childhood dream of learning to fly, Wayne K. Blickenstaff set aside his wings and turned his artistic talent and love of adventure strip illustrations into a successful career as an advertising, editorial and book illustrator. He later became a teacher and art director. People gravitated to him because of his calm demeanor, great listening skills and insight. In 1989 Blick and his wife moved from Connecticut to North Carolina to be closer to family and spend time at their beloved summer home in the Blue Ridge Mountains. During retirement he pursued his interest in writing and this book was his passion project. Thanks to his friend and editor, Graham Cross, his dream to have it published has finally been realized.
