Summary:
"'Harbor Knight' follows Garcia through his tumultuous childhood, to fatherhood at age sixteen--and to a bunker in Vienam, where an unconventional message to the CIA gains him an exciting career in covert defense of the United States. With much humor (and a few other emotions), the author shares incidents from his life of espionage and speaks frankly of how this career has affected his family life. In retirement, Garcia describes how he has been given a second, unexpected opportunity at fatherhood. Keeping one foot in the spy business, he also assists veterans and youth on a variety of fronts and has become involved in politics."--Page 4 of cover.
