On the Way to the Sea: A Boy's Journey to Manhood (Paperback)

Nineteen-year-old Jake Shaw had now started his second year at Monterey Peninsula College and moved from his aunt's house in Carmel Highlands to a small apartment in Pacific Grove and lived independently for the first time in his life. He embarked on his journey to manhood finding love, humility, failure, and success. His journey took him from the central California coast to the high mountains of the eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains. On his way to achieving the wisdom of manhood, he encountered his first true love and the emotional roller coaster of a relationship. He also was confronted with life-and-death challenges and the lessons of radical acceptance.
