Sometimes childhood events can shape a person's destiny. Such was the case for George Frison. His father's accidental death meant that Frison was raised by his grandparents, thus experiencing life on a ranch instead of the small town childhood he otherwise would have had. He was fascinated by the prehistoric artifacts on the ranch; eventually, this interest prompted him to change his life's course. In this memoir, Frison shares his work and his atypical journey from rancher to professor and archaeologist.
