Description

"It's Made to Sell-Not to Drink!" is the almost too good to be true tale of Bill Wellman's life. From opening pages, the stories of mischief, adventure and fortune spill forth. There is young Wellman helping run a betting parlor in his parent's bedroom, or winning a stereo for escorting an elephant to an appliance store. Other stories tell about the leaky "In-Tents" Theater, the Indian medicine man and his father riding a horse through the bar. Wellman has done it all. He worked with famous - Bob Hope, "Goober", Kenny Rogers, and Liberace and helped introduce Orville's popcorn to the world. He helped develop theaters, restaurants and hotels. It's a tale telling page turner that will leave you laughing, crying and thoroughly entertained.

Award-winning W.F. "Bill" Wellman, 82, is a rare man. His life has been filled with accomplishments ranging from restauranteur to theater producer to saloon operator to babysitter to the stars. From humble beginnings in a community near the shore of Lake Michigan, Wellman fashioned a career that many envy. He's flown off to China and crisscrossed the United States. He's helped build hotels, theaters and kid-friendly pizza parlors. He's been paid to play baseball and continues working for an exciting entrepreneurial billionaire. And all the while he helped raise a family of three great children with wife, Liz (in charge) in Valparaiso, Indiana.
