註釋
From his growing-up years in Los Angeles following World War II, James Pratt shares with us 12 lessons he learned from his father that he has found invaluable to his perspective on life today. The title comes from a lie that his father told in order to get into the army during World War II in hopes of saving the world. His father taught him that a lie was only O.K. when it was something that you are willing to die for. Jim's father struggled to make a living and after a couple of years of college, Jim dropped out in order to help his father's business. That opportunity brought Jim many powerful educational experiences about life and what is most important. Customers will relate to the themes of hope, love, faith and family. "New York Times" and "USA Today" bestselling author shares twelve lessons he learned from his father's example about commitment and honesty and getting along in the world.
