Book Preview:

#1 The farm was 30 miles west of Wichita on the silty loam of southern Kansas. It had three nicknames: the breadbasket of the world, the air capital of the world, and tornado alley. The area was known for its government-subsidized grain production, airplane-manufacturing industry, and its tornadoes.

#2 Betty and Arnie met at a dance, and after a few dates, she moved into his farmhouse. She learned how to cook for him and his field workers, and she fell in love with him. He treated her better than she had ever been treated.

#3 After a few months, Arnie asked Betty to marry him. She thought she was done with all that, but she ended up marrying him outside the Church anyway, in September 1977, at a little chapel on a highway next to a trailer park.

#4 Arnie had a huge impact on my life, as he was the one who asked Betty to two-step. He was such a bright light for us that I thought of calling you after his middle name: August.
