Quick Synopsis (from the jacket)

A WORTHY LEGACY is a book far greater than its sum of parts; a moral guide that does not preach or command, but simply presents a code for life with a confidence and credibility that allows the reader to relate and apply its philosophies.

Unadorned Review

A WORTHY LEGACY was a quick and enjoyable read. There is a great deal of wisdom packed into its 101 pages. Beginning and ending with the tender story of a beloved grandfather's death, A WORTHY LEGACY takes you on a journey of life lessons. Knowledge passed down from a wiser generation gives this book an inspirational and solid foundation.

Having read the book through, I think I will keep it handy. It is a great source for inspirational quotes. The advice is arranged by topic, so you can easily flip through and find whatever you may interested in; Character, Initiative, Fear. My personal favorite concerns happiness:

Some will condemn you when you would expect them to praise you, and some will show ingratitude when you expect them to be thankful. For this reason, you must learn to give to others for the sake of giving.

Back in May, I had the pleasure of interviewing Ms. Akinyanmi. Click HERE to read the interview. Click HERE to visit THE WORTHY LEGACY website to learn more or purchase the book.
