[Dawn Axelson · Rating 3 out of 5]

I stopped very early on. It was not what I thought I was getting into. It was reminiscent of those 50’s propaganda ads with a Catholic underpinning. It genuinely extolled virtue, but in a heavy handed and idealized way. I admit, I almost read it anyway for being unintentionally funny. Follow his advice, and when you are older you will not have a bad year. Ignore it, and the family inheritance could be squandered in a generation. I honestly believe that the author’s heart was in the right place. But there’s a reason why some books fade away in spite of all the good intentions.
