Dear Boys
Letters To My Grandsons
The result is a memoir, a celebration, an inspiration, and a revelation — filled with love and wonder.
When Pushcart Publisher Bill Henderson entered his 80’s, he was blessed with identical twin grandsons. As they grew older, he began thinking about what he wanted to say to them after he was gone, and they came of age. Influenced by the letters of Flannery O’Connor, Thomas Merton and others, he started writing to the boys telling them about his life and mining it for whatever wisdom he had gleaned along the way. He intended the letters for private circulation. But at the urging of friends, he has collected them for a wider readership.
