The anthology is special to me because it includes my essay, "A Just Man," which is about my late father James P. Duly, Sr., and some lessons he taught me, including to be proud of who I am and to never stop learning.
The gift book from Write Integrity Press, has 21 essays about lessons our dads taught us, along with scores of photos--including one of my dad with his large glasses and mustache, looking somewhat like a Mafia Don, except that J. P. Duly was Irish-American.
At 91 pages, the stories, photos, and layout are nicely done. The anthology has a spiritual slant and includes author bios from contributors ranging from: a doctor, a church elder, several teachers (Sunday school, Bible, Homeschooler and Special Needs), a nurse, a TV producer, freelance writers and others.
The book is available in print and Kindle

which includes LIFE LESSONS FROM DADS
Congratulations, Donna! How wonderful - especially since the essay and its subject is so close to your heart. :)
