About this title

Synopsis

As a Merchant Marine in World War II, Lee McEwen saw it all. In this account of his life, he shares the no-holds-barred world of life on a ship, and the humor necessary to withstand the loneliness and sadness of wartime. In addition to hauling troops, McEwen had the unusual honor of being on the first ship to transport war brides to the United States.

Despite these experiences, he was still seeking the girl of his dreams when he returned home after the war. Then, in a very unlikely place, this rough-talking world traveler met Sylvia, his "girl in the moon" and the rest was history. McEwen recounts their life together, and his miraculous survival of two life-threatening accidents. The Sylvia Factor is a colorful account of a life well lived.
