Bio and Intro post

I expect it to be very adventurous, since that is what was described by the daughter in both of the prefaces. She described her father as growing up in that kind of way and learning certain ways of life, at least that fit his beliefs. Also, I expect to get a better perspective from the author's point of view. I have read a diary book before, a couple actually, and I noticed that seeing what the author felt, and reading it with an actuality was very important, and was very different from other books in that it let the reader into the author's mind.
