I Have Only One Bit Of Advice

When I Was A Child In The Navy During World War Ii, I Was Perennially Grateful To The Armed Services Libraries For Having On Hand A Good Supply Of Those Pocket Books, Which Were So Common In That Period. I Must Have Read A Couple Hundred Of Them, And They Did A Lot To Save My Sanity.
