Mister B: Living With a 98-Year-Old
Rocket Scientist
by Lynn Byk , Joseph Byk
Rating: 4.4 #ad
Mister B could care less about being politically correct. By the time you finish reading about him, you will know how to live a carefree existence.
Best Memoir, 2016, recipient of the Pinnacle Award and Reader’s Favorite Award. A surprising odyssey begins when a chauffeur-cook on the verge of financial ruin decides to help a 98-year-old rocket scientist. The old man opines to teach her a few of his own life lessons, namely how to live forever.
Born in 1916, to a Polish-speaking mother, physicist Joseph Byk began his early schooling in rope-tied-baggy-pants-poverty. He was every teachers’ dreaded student, however, he aspired to design vehicles that defy gravity. A tender little laugh, a swept floor in reticence, a literary window into the home of a surviving physicist and his caregiver. Mister B could care less about being politically correct. That’s not his style. Joseph B IS the loveable, bumbling scientist portrayed in Nevil Shute’s romantic character, Mr. Honey, (Jimmy Stewart) in the movie, No Highway in the Sky. For curiosity seekers of aerospace and structural science, how did it all start?
