Book Description:
This is a story about a broken man. That broken man was me. I was unable to see the signs of a broken marriage and kept believing with my body and soul along with my Christian beliefs in one hand that everything would sort itself out! It is certainly true that in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. I was blinded for not reading the signs of a failing marriage. Now on the other side, I was now in a position to search for true happiness, which, I have found through a positive mental attitude (PMA).
Excerpt:
This book is quite controversial
in that it is the realization of a real situation. Since the inception of my
intent to write this book, I have had the opportunity to speak and be
introduced to countless people who have been faced with a similar situation to
my own.

I fully appreciate that these
days it is not unusual for both men and women to be married a number of times
throughout their lives. Also, the reasons why these marriages break down differ
and are sensitive to a greater or lesser degree.

I have taken the opportunity to
draw your attention to some of the pitfalls, should you be contemplating
divorce for the first or second (or even later)
time. In addition, I hope to
direct you to areas where you possibly need some help to see and understand
more clearly what you should do next!

About the Author:
Trevor has led a very interesting life, a life that has virtually taken him around the world and back again. He was a long-term career soldier who joined the army as a boy at the age of fifteen. Throughout his thirty-year military career, he worked hard and played hard, which gained him credibility, earning him many promotions until he retired in 1992 as a major. He has always strived to help those less fortunate than himself and devoted much of his spare time in helping raise much-needed funds for many charities and organizations.
His literary talents have in the past resulted in him writing articles for the Angling Times, the Sea Angler, and the Boat Angler magazines. In 1994, he also wrote Fishing Marks for the Sea Angler: Selsey Bill to Anvil Point. Following his retirement from the army, he has written another book, How We Built the Gambian Army. The title doesn't fully depict what the book is about as he also wrote about the many in-country charitable events that he lead whilst serving in West Africa.
Interview with Trevor Stewart
Do your characters seem to hijack the story or do you feel like you have the reigns of the story?
Myself- Likely to change when I take up the style of a Novelist.
Convince us why you feel your book is a must read.
One of the commonest of life's tragedies oftoday being Divorced, inmost cases it was due to one of the parties involved not knowing, how or when events started to show cracks or crumbling in front of our eyes. At this point - This is a great book to read if you are looking for answ ers. A number of people I have spoken to whilst carrying out my research, all said "I wish I had known about "this and that in the book"
My ethos is if I can help couples take the right decisions by helping just one then that is all I can ask for!
The book could certainly .be described as a 'self- help' synopsis to gather info in one place, where to discover what went wrong? And if you are lucky, put things right. If not on the first marriage, but any subsequent marriages. All areas are guided through the reality of life and discovery of a Positive Mental Attitude!
Have you written any other books that are not published?
I like to start with a basic plan or road map and then see a project through to completion and subsequent publication. Over the next year or so, I anticipate changing my style to that of a Novelist along with hopefully introducing several novels to the market. Most of these novels are just a few words in my little "Black" book.
- Pen or typewriter or computer?
I always endeavor to put a writing plan together before committing the details into my trusty computer "Gert rude" .
Anything you would like to say to your readers and fans?
Just remember- many "True" statements have been written by the famous and should never be forgotten - many carved in stone. However, my thoughts are guided towards "From little Acorns, large Oakes will grow", so keep checking back to my website from time to time!
I like the cover, sounds good.
