Ernest Baldini started out as a bullied kid in Detroit, and he could have easily slipped into a life of mediocrity. Over the course of eighty years and a series of carefully considered choices, he set the bar high in a bid to reach the heavens. Take a trip through history, enjoy modest adventures, and relish the tales of a man with a romantic heart whose love for life never wavered in A Twentieth-Century Argonaut.. Instead, he chose a different path-making careful decisions and working hard to eventually become a rocket scientist. Although he rubbed elbows and collaborated with some of the century's greatest scientists and engineers, his life parallels the lives of millions of other Americans whose years have been clouded by wars, disasters, booms, and busts. Along the way, he survived World War II and learned that money is not the key to fulfilling dreams; instead, it's only another tool to use in building dreams
