Shared Fortunes

by Don Campbell

This account is not merely a coming-of-age story. Two 8-year-old boys from a small town solemnly vow to share all their worldly goods for a lifetime. It was a pact certain to fail with the passage of time – or was it? Their vow was refined over time, but resisted attacks from multiple skepticism, derision, ridicule, theft, and fraud. The agreement that no one thought could last became a life-long bond between two disparate individuals who pursued very different careers. Separated by geography, personal relationships, ambitions, and women, the men stayed close through their childhood pact. When the final, ultimate assault comes, will they be destroyed and ruined? It is a story of friendship, partnership, trust, and reliance between two individuals through all of life's phases, culminating in a critical joint courtroom effort to save it all.

Intriguing

Such a well developed story that it seems to be biographical or partially true. Shocking but well written. A lot of details.
