From the Dust Jacket: "What I have often struggled with as a parent is my desire to have helped my child to become a good person. What do I mean by 'good'? It's not that simple kind of good which really means 'nice' in some loose and shallow kind of way. It is that other 'good.' I want my children to be people who know what doing the right thing means, who have the strength of their convictions -- who have convictions -- and the personal integrity and wherewithal to act upon those convictions. I want my children to have character and integrity.". SIGNED by the AUTHOR. First printing (so stated). Hardcover. Fine condition/Very Good dust jacket. 8vo. (xiv), 159pp.
