Rate this book
“One day, we will all pass away. One day, we will leave this world, in time.”
--James Ellis

A father writes a final letter to his two sons.

“Like all of us, a day will come when I no longer walk the earth, no longer share the air you breathe, and ‘Dear Sons’ will be the remaining physical manifestation of my love and commitment to my boys."

This book has a wide variety of topics in a casual conversation format. It’s a long heartfelt letter that serves as a one-way conversation for James to have with his sons after he is gone.

James Ellis explores many interesting topics within these pages. Sit back and explore the physics and wonder of time, among other things, and how time has shaped who we are.

Read within for fatherly advice on relationships, academics, and hardships in life. From Sam Houston and Andrew Jackson to Roosevelt, you will learn how hardships pushed ordinary people to the upper echelon of American History.

This book is an easy, compassionate, and interesting read. From slavery to Native Americans, James explains to his sons how time has shaped us all.

It is here he shares his knowledge, gratitude, experience, honesty, and sincerity, with fascinating anecdotes, vignettes, and life lessons among the pages of this genuinely unique book.
