Author Lee Kleins longtime service in the US Navy took him from World War II as an enlisted man through the Korean and Vietnam eras as a commissioned officer. A gay man, he had to balance his top-secret military life with his loving one. In Two Journeys to One Wondrous Life, Klein shares the story of his life. The seventh of eight children, he was born in 1924 in Lincoln, Nebraska. During his military career, he served in naval bases from Alaska and the Aleutian Islands to the North and Baltic Seas, and he worked as a carrier pilot during the Cold War. Klein also worked in the restaurant business, opening his first restaurant in 1972, in Cloverdale, Sonoma County, California. His life of two journeys has been an incredible, wonder-filled, surprisingly serendipitous, and happy. And he hopes that by telling his life story, he can show the new generation what it was like to live through these restrictive times, when many careers were closed to gay men, and how it just gets better. This memoir shares the personal narrative of a gay man who is a veteran of a decades-long military career, recalling his experiences of a life well lived.
