George Dawson (1) (1898–2001)

This is one of the best books to read if you are feeling down. He has such a wonderful perspective on life and happiness. A memoir from a 104 yr old man about his wanderings and life. We read it for our bookclub awhile back and think everyone enjoyed it.

George Dawson was an amazing man. He was such a hard worker, and enjoyed life's smaller pleasures. If everyone was as good a man as he was, the world would be a much better place. Oh and the book was pretty good too.

Please don't let the first chapter put you off of this book. Skip Chapter One. Go on to Chapter Two. It won't interfere in the flow or understanding. You may find Chapter One easier to read after you have finished the other chapters.

Very good, made me cry in places and laugh in others
