Don Richardson lived in the same farmhouse on his grandparents' Michigan homestead all his life, not counting his army days. But one-room schoolhouse roots couldn't keep this small-town farm boy from achieving success on the ground, in the water, and in the skies.Three-year-old Don gaped as the first airplane he ever saw landed in a nearby field. Before long, boyhood obsession with model planes gave way to adventures in the air when he learned to fly, taught other pilots, and transported folks for lifesaving medical procedures-all while struggling to read and write.Boats fascinated Don as much as planes. Crafting toys and then seaworthy vessels by hand brought more satisfaction than frustration-usually. But curiosity pushed him to explore beneath the surface too, so he dove into waters around the globe. During his extensive shoestring travels, amazing luck led Don to make new friends who invited him to participate in aspects of their culture not witnessed by tourists.Despite ever-present wanderlust, Don always returned to his family home, where he brought more than one company to life through the mechanical genius of his mind, the diligence of his hard work, and the relationships he forged.Find out how this unpretentious son of Michigan farmers??carried only his trusty orange backpack around the world to exotic destinations.?talked his way onto a remote island where the chief forbade visitors-even relatives.?survived near misses in the natural world, in the mechanical realm, and at the hands of fellow human beings, all of which failed to bring him down.?kept going after the worst loss any parent can suffer.?created a self-sustaining, five-acre pond large enough to appear in satellite imagery.?built and rebuilt businesses-sometimes on a handshake-after bankruptcy.Grab your gear and come along for an incredible ride. Don Richardson's life story is Beyond Belief.
