Book Description
The author and radio host shares an inspiring collection of letters to his grandson about family, growing up, and living with disability. When his grandson was born, Daniel Gottlieb began writing a series of letters for Sam to read later in life. He planned to cover everything from dealing with your parents and handling bullies to falling in love and coping with death. Ever since a car accident left Daniel quadriplegic, he knew not to take anything for granted. He wrote the letters in case he wasn’t around to see Sam reach adulthood. Then, when Sam was only fourteen months old, he was diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disability, a form of autism, and suddenly everything changed. Now the grandfather and grandson were bound by something more: a disability. And Daniel’s special understanding of what that means became invaluable. Letters to Sam is a lovingly written, emotionally gripping book that offers unique—and universal—insights into what it means to be human.

In the cattle country of Northwest Texas in the late nineteenth century, a man had to be smart and tough. Sam Chance was both. Mustering out of the Confederate army as a sergeant, Chance was possessed of steady nerves and a good business head. Like so many rugged men of his day, he headed west in 1865, determined to make good and to turn his dreams into reality. When he achieves near-legendary status and makes his fortune, Chance is forced to pay the steep price that the frontier exacts in exchange for such success. Book jacket.
