The autobiographical memoir and family history of California native and Phoenix-based businessman and entrepreneur, Robert Milton ''Bob'' Greening (1921-2010), son of the Chino Hills rancher and developer, Paul Willard Greening. Bob Greening was a graduate of Whittier High School and Stanford ('42), a Navy midshipman during the War, and his postwar business pursuits included, among others, running the Arizona Ammonia Company and founding the Mexican fertilizer business Semillas Nacionales and Nitragin.
