Reviews "Mike, your book was great. I couldn’t
put it down. You met my wife, Kitty Dillon in October in the Dallas airport
and she bought me this book for our 3rd anniversary. I appreciated the
autographed copy by you as well as Charlie Waters, who I have always admired.
Please let me know when your next book comes out!" "John & Donna, over at Thunderbird Resort,
gave me your book a few weeks ago. Thank you so much for the nice words
and the autographs. It is the centerpiece of my prized books, which includes
a signed copy of “Catcher in the Rye.” Having played baseball
from a very young age, through a couple of years of college, I really
can identify with many of your timely quips. It’s a wonderful game
at any level. Again, thank you so much!" "As a psychologist, I readily recognized my friend and former student was suffering from depression, even suicidal tendencies. A recent divorce was a major contributing factor. My friend,
who I will refer to as WA for his ability as a horseman (wrangler) and
athletic ability, had many friendly conversations but nothing served to
change his depression. I finally suggested that WA read Heroes Are Hard
to Find but his reply was filled with adamant anger. “Through all
this divorce situation, all people want me to do is read, read, read.
Even though you were my professor, I will not read any book!” With
his outlook unimproved, a month later, I finally convinced WA to read
just the first chapter of “Heroes.” In less than 24 hours,
WA was in my office, a different individual, his excitement obvious; the
depression and suicidal thoughts had vanished.“I was in a foul mood
and reading anything was just too heavy emotionally for me but I had promised
to read one chapter,” said WA. “Once I started, it hooked
me and I finished the book at 2 a.m. and wanted to read on. I found my
Bible and read for the first time verses from the Scriptures. The next
day I went out and bought six copies and gave it to my son and several
friends.” Now things began to open up in conversation between WA
and myself. Heroes Are Hard to Find had indeed lifted a crippling depression." Previous | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | Next
