"The time was April 1946.  The place was Eugene, Oregon, following the end of the second World War. I was a college student finishing my Junior year at the University of Oregon.  My father, Eugene Paul Walters, was an officer in the United States military government in Karlsruhe, Germany, and was attacking the red tape required to get me to Europe.   This was to enable him to have a home and me to have the experience of my life."  (Quote from the book)
