痛失妻子后,他的学习耽搁了四年。但最终他又重新回来,并在老师马克·霍根的帮助下开始记录自己的生活。
As WTNH reports, he wrote about his family's voyage from Portugal to the U.S., how he went on to captain a lobster boat and serve on the National Guard, his many journeys at sea and how he was unable to save another fisherman who had fallen overboard. He became a carpenter and a plumber, and even a professional boxer - and eventually built his own home in Stonington Borough.
他写下了自己的故事:如何随家人从葡萄牙乘船来到美国,怎样成为一艘捕虾船的船长,又怎样加入了国民警卫队,许多次的航海历程,以及他是怎样眼睁睁目睹另一位渔民摔落海中,又无能为无法救援。他做过木匠,管道工,甚至当过职业拳击手——最后,他把家安在了斯托宁顿小镇。
His life stories have become so popular, in fact, nearly 800 copies were sold in the first two weeks of the book's release last month. One thousand more have since been printed as requests for the book flood in from as far as Germany. And now even Hollywood producers have approached Mr Henry about optioning the rights to his life story for a big screen adaptation.
他的生活传奇非常受欢迎,事实上,这本书上月刚刚上架,短短两周之内就卖出近800本。出版社甚至收到了来自德国读者的图书订单,现在图书已经加印了一千多册。而好莱坞制片人也在与亨利先生接触,希望能把他的故事搬上大荧幕。
