It really doesn't matter when you grew up, where you spent your formative years, what path you ultimately chose or plan to choose in life, as just about everyone should be able to identify with this book. A wise man once said, "Show me a man that doesn't make a mistake, and I'll show you a man that does nothing!" While artistic expression prevailed for entertainment vs. following all of the hard and fast rules associated with writing, you should thoroughly enjoy this true short story of a regular guy from the Philly and South Jersey areas, who admittedly, made some mistakes along the way but learned from them, with the fundamental goal of improving and contributing to a better life for his family during this wild ride. I certainly hope you find some of the events as amusing as I did, while also being reminded of the serious issues that face all of us and how I dealt with them. The Final Chapter (for now) is probably my favorite as it sums up the story yet informs the reader of things to come, but you will obviously need to first read the preceding chapters of the book, which is a good/easy read in order to appreciate the fate of its characters. Enjoy!
