About the Book

Join computer entrepreneur Stan Rogers as we see him caught up in a new adventure.  Yes, he is still passionate about what he sees as a root cause that underlies many of the troubles besetting mankind in recent times.  His efforts to start people, especially in the Third World, thinking about getting their spiraling population growth under some control have begun to bear some fruit.  Many of these earlier programs are now operating day-to-day in these countries by their own governments.

            Now, as an offshoot of his other great love, that of the Eastern Pacific Coast, and at the prodding of some concerned members of the new, upcoming generation, he tackles three separate acute problems.  These are; first, the battles for the sea’s bounties in an effort to feed these populations, second, those parasites of society out to make huge profits by other peoples’ miseries, and third, a desperate people trying to flee their country’s poverty and oppression.

            Unless Rogers and his young friends can find new solutions, these operations will continue to operate outside the international laws as they currently are.  As with the “population” problem, it is apparent that man’s selfish goals can do more harm for society than can all the short-term progression of so-called global warming.


About the Author

Capt. Don Anderson began a lifelong love affair with the sea in the early 1950’s. Working on party boats out of San Diego under some of the legends of the sportfishing industry, then moving into commercial fishing with a string of his own boats, he worked the Pacific Coast of California and Mexico for Albacore, Yellowtail, Barracuda, and Swordfish. After a break for college and a more steady income, he finally had a couple of nickels to rub together and began fishing more remote places for saltwater gamefish. Building on local sport and commercial experience, he became a successful big game angler, catching Wahoo, Tuna, Blue and Striped Marlin, and Sailfish. Tagging and releasing over 200 billfish in recent years reaffirmed his respect for these creatures. Aware of how blessed he is to interact with the sea, his belief is that fishermen themselves, not the politicians, could be the best consultants to the governments and scientists attempting to maintain sustainable fish populations. He also believes most anyone can become a successful saltwater angler if they learn the fundamentals, stay alert, and position themselves in the best place at the best times.
