Tell My Sons
In the bestselling tradition of Tuesdays with Morrie and The Last Lecture, a dying father's deeply moving legacy for his sons is winning hearts and minds around the world. At just 38 and at the height of his military career, highly decorated US soldier Lieutenant Colonel Mark Weber was diagnosed with deadly Stage IV gastro-intestinal cancer. Given just four months to live, he began to write a letter to his three young sons so that as they grew up without him they would have the lessons that living - and dying - had taught him about courage and fear, pride and humility, and so much more. Over time that letter became the extraordinary Tell My Sons. Wise, courageous and devoid of sugar-coating, it is a gift that's already reaching far beyond his sons. As Mitch Albom, author of Tuesdays With Morrie, says- Mark Weber's story has touched me in such a profound 'way. It's real, brave, gritty, honest, inspiring and a gift to us all. Every page exudes courage, honesty, and an indomitable spirit.'
