Book Description
The first chapter is an annotated autobiography of the author to introduce the reader to the background that the author is drawing from for his conclusions. He is a working class, a commonerno silver spoon here. He spent most of his life struggling to make ends meet while working in the private sector, and then in the final years of his work life, he worked in the public sector and got involved in the labor movement and politics where the political work was done. The revelations of his findings will probably not going to win him any friends within either party because, as the book discloses, nobody has clean hands, including the people that go to the polls or sit at home and throw stones at the gladiators. The book throws stones at everybody, including himself. The books suggests where we, as a people, began to go wrong and stray from the path our ancestors laid out for us. It is the books assertion that our nation is in decline because our culture has been compromised and is in decline. Its purpose is to strike a note toward fixing our problems, starting in the home.

Book Description
With this book, anyone, from any tradition, can write an ethical will. Words that come from the heart enter the heart.” Many of these wills come from plain ordinary fathers and mothers, yet they touch the hearts of all who read them. And so I suggest that you read these wills, and then that you try your hand at writing one of your own. If you do, you will leave a gift to the future, and the not-yet-born children of your children’s children will thank you and bless you for it. from the Introduction Ethical wills are precious spiritual documents, windows into the souls of those who write them. Those who write ethical wills—often parents writing letters to their children or grandparents to their grandchildren—try to sum up what they have learned in life, and what they want most for, and from, their loved ones. In this unique combination of “What Is” and “How To,” Riemer and Stampfer show how to prepare an ethical will and provide as guides examples of ethical wills written by almost 100 famous and ordinary people. This wide range of contemporary ethical wills reveals the ongoing relevance of ethical wills for people of all faiths, all backgrounds.
