Additional Info
This new book, NO LIFE IS A FAILURE, is a must read for anyone seeking a better understanding of how faith and good character function. It is also for historians interested in reviewing how ten famous people from history responded to success and failure, and how these results dramatically challenged them. Like many of us today, each of these ten — Robert Edward Lee, Abraham Lincoln, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., Thomas Alva Edison, Anne Mansfield Sullivan, Helen Adams Keller, Harry S. Truman, Richard Milhous Nixon, Dr. Martin Luther, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. — had to confront success and failure. Occasionally, some proved unable to capitalize on their great successes, while others proved incapable of understanding how to deal with tragic failures. In either instance, those of the ten who had the wisdom and character to handle such challenging results, lived to make lasting contributions to future generations, both in America and on the world stage. This is why we remember them today.
