The subtitle of this work is True Adventures of my Life. It is a collection of unique, interesting, and funny stories written by Alan Guzzetti, an east coast Italian-American.

This book is part memoir and part travelogue, with one hilarious episode after another. Some of the stories are full of historical details and others highlight Guzzetti’s intriguing observations. His powers of observation at the time and his amazingly accurate recollection many years later are evident throughout the book. The author's descriptions of places and experiences recapture those memories so vividly that you’ll feel you are there with him.

The book is written in a conversational style that engages the reader immediately. The stories and characters are all truly represented. No More Smoking in Bed is funny and hard to put down.

Born into a large family at the beginning of World War II, Alan is an inquisitive and inventive child. He develops a solid work ethic at a young age, but still manages to find trouble. His family’s odyssey from New York to the promised land of California at age five is the beginning of his travel adventures which continue over the next two-thirds of a century. Anxious to leave home at the age of seventeen, he joins the Air Force where he tours the Far East and then, returns to his home country’s east coast for a period of time. Later, he finds work in America’s early space program. Then, he enters the world of high technology and learns to not only survive, but to excel in business without a formal education, attracting people equally adventuresome and entrepreneurial.
