Geoff Cumbley’s ‘Free Spirit’ tells of soldier’s life-changing journey through wars, new career paths

WORCESTER, England: Good fortune strikes an American soldier when he is granted the opportunity to mingle with members of high society. But as his business and social acumens grow, he faces tough decisions in his personal and professional life.

In the new book from author Geoff Cumbley titled “Free Spirit” (published by AuthorHouse UK), former soldier Jesse Wells must find it in himself to make decisions that could cost him a heavy price.

Born in the state of Virginia in 19th- century America, Jesse fought in the Civil War and survived. He then moved to the Black Hills of present-day South Dakota to serve as a scout in the American-Indian War.

When his military service comes to an end, Jesse finds a new purpose as a businessman, making connections with heavy hitters in the industry, where women play a pivotal role.

Along his life-changing journey, this former soldier must juggle life-altering choices while also keeping his composure in the cutthroat business world.
