“Heartfelt and ever-endearing—equal parts information and inspiration. This is a book to keep by your bedside and return to often.”—Amy Dickinson, nationally syndicated advice columnist "Ask Amy" More than one thousand extraordinary Americans share their stories and the wisdom they have gained on living, loving, and finding happiness. After a chance encounter with an extraordinary ninety-year-old woman, renowned gerontologist Karl Pillemer began to wonder what older people know about life that the rest of us don't. His quest led him to interview more than one thousand Americans over the age of sixty-five to seek their counsel on all the big issues- children, marriage, money, career, aging. Their moving stories and uncompromisingly honest answers often surprised him. And he found that he consistently heard advice that pointed to these thirty lessons for living. Here he weaves their personal recollections of difficulties overcome and lives well lived into a timeless book filled with the hard-won advice these older Americans wish someone had given them when they were young. Like This I Believe, StoryCorps's Listening Is an Act of Love, and Tuesdays with Morrie, 30 Lessons for Living is a book to keep and to give. Offering clear advice toward a more fulfilling life, it is as useful as it is inspiring.

Eleven young men met over 25 years ago on the campus of Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. They were football players who ventured to Vanderbilt to fulfill their dreams by competing in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). This group of men - collectively known as "DaFellaz" - often reminisce about their days as defeated "gladiators," African-American males who survived on a predominately white, wealthy campus; their roles in today's society as fathers and husbands; and their futures, collectively and individually. This "do's and don'ts" book is comprised of many of the life lessons they have learned over the years past. The primary target audience is young males from junior high school through college along with their parents, grandparents, coaches, teachers and anyone is influential in their lives. This is a blueprint not only for the young men who seek to become college athletes, but for all young men who aspire to become successful no matter what path they take in life. Each chapter ends with the opportunity for the reader to reflect on his own life and follow up on the issued challenge.

This book is for any woman over 40 who could use some encouragement and validation that you are enough and you can bounce back from anything that temporarily knocked you down, shook your confidence, and left you doubting yourself. I wrote it for women who are revisiting themselves, in relationships, spirituality, vocation and purpose.

Stories, wisdom and financial tips from a man who's been around longer than TV, chocolate-chip cookies and ballpoint pens. As a child during the Great Depression, author Steve Mucha learned how his parents turned hard times into good times. As a father and businessman, he learned the necessity of financial planning and secrets of selling things. His memoir, "Advice From a 90-Year-Old Man," though, is about much more than money. It's about a plunge on a sled into a frozen lake. A mother's kindness to folks near and far. Catching 100 fish in a single day. A brother's heroism at Pearl Harbor. Fillings picking up radio stations. The joys of family, sports, music and much more. Readers will find lots of answers: What are some secrets to a thriving marriage? What's an easy way to cut your golf score without cheating? What's it like being very, very old? "Advice From a 90-Year-Old Man" is one man's sharing of simple but important lessons, expressed with humor, and including some good, clean jokes.
