The Bastable siblings--Dora, Oswald, Dicky, Alice, Noel, and Horace Octavius--are clever and curious children who live with their widowed father. When their mother died, their father became ill and lost his successful business, forcing the family to live modestly. Inspired by stories of buried gold and jewels--and hoping to help their struggling father--the Bastable children decide to go searching for treasure. Their adventure soon takes them to London, where they abandon digging for the allure of paying work. The Bastables come up with several schemes to make money, including writing poetry, banditry, and starting a newspaper, in the process discovering the power of imagination and the true value of home.

(I always hoped for the best; I expected I might find the very worst; and usually it would fall somewhere in between: that way, I was seldom if ever, disappointed!)

If I could change only one thing in my life: I would try to have been a better roll model to my kids, and to have been - a better father, and grand pa! My book covers a one of a kind story of my meeting, and beating "Evel Kneivel at his own game twice; and my struggle with alcohol; my Serious Gambling addiction, and my Deadly fight with Cancer!
