This book is about the life of a salesman. In truth, it will not deal with salesmen in candy stores or boutiques or Macy's. Nor will it deal with the salesman in a showroom, be it clothing or automobiles. These salesmen will have shared some of the experiences I shall discuss, but not most. This book is about the life of a salesman in the great outdoors, the one who goes from door to door or office to office or factory to factory. Much of my experience has been in selling overseas, practically all over the world, so I will write about that in some detail. However, I also spent years selling throughout the United States and Canada, and that will not be neglected.
This will not be an instruction book about the art of selling. It is instead an anecdotal reminiscence of one man who spent more than 50 years in national and international sales––the places he has been, the people he has met, the pleasures and perils of travel and the trials and tribulations of his chosen profession.
