The Man, the Woman, the Prize takes its protagonist, Jack Ridgell, from the war-torn Hiirtgen Forest in Germany where he was wounded in late World War II, through a stint at an English manor house-turned-rehabilitation center. Upon his discharge and return to Florida, he realizes that his late father's business as a citrus farmer is not going to be the fulfilling career he had hoped for.

En route it gives the reader an interesting glimpse into the life of an infantryman during the last "conventional war," followed by an enlightening journey through the challenges and triumphs of the oil and gas business in modern Texas.
