"In the past 2 years I have gone through a divorce, and lost both of my parents 6 months apart. My dad was my best friend. I have spent the last year feeling helpless, angry, sad, lost, confused, and tired. Everything I tried to do seemed pointless. I had no interest in the things that used to give me great joy.

My buddy told me about your book. I bought it on Wednesday night, started reading it on Thursday, and finished it on Friday. I was captivated. The truths it taught were already familiar to me. My spirit recognized it. I feel new and alive, thank you so much. My decision to read your book, The Traveler's Gift, will change the world!"

"I think I have purchased about eight copies of "The Travelers Gift" as gifts. I first learned about the book on Good Morning America only weeks after being diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's B-cell Lymphoma. I cannot tell you what it meant to me to have your book come into my life at that time. I have given copies to my oncology office as well as passing copies among others who are facing the facts and fears that were mine in early 2003.

I think that the first message that shook my existence was when Harry Truman told "David" (and me) to "Get up off the floor." I cannot explain the impact of that sentence. And then again when Lincoln said "well then congratulations, things can only get better." WOW what you gave to me in those words is unimaginable."

"I just completed "The Traveler's Gift". I have never been more inspired in my life. I have been through a hard time recently, due to stupid choices i made. I felt like I was a loser, that the world was against me. I now not only understand why, I know and believe the buck truly stops with me. I start each day energized and refreshed. THANK YOU!!"

"I was so encouraged by The Traveler's Gift that I've hand made 12 "gifts" as described in the book and then gave those gifts (along with the book) to 12 men who I believe would benefit greatly from the content of the book and the powerful symbolism of the "gift".

I hope the "gift" will be a lasting reminder of the life changing lessons contained in the book. "Made of worn stout cloth.....etc." Andy Andrews is a gifted author with a powerful message and I could think of no better way to help get his word out. "

"I truly believe that nothing happens by accident. As I was perusing the book store with my twelve year old, looking for a comic book for his birthday. I vaguely remembered the mention of a book by a minister one Sunday as I visited this congregation. I asked the clerk had she heard of a book entitled The Traveler's Gift. I had no clue as to how deeply this book would touch me. There were chapters and lessons that literally had me in tears. I know I have recommended this book to dozens of people; friends and strangers!"

"I almost died from chronic alcoholism in Oct. 2004. I've been sober for 15 months with God and A.A. as my main tools along with support from friends and family.

I have used The Traveler's Gift as a reference many times in our meetings. It reads as though our founders could have written it. It follows our literature to a "T".

I'm sure you have been told this before, but it is truly so amazing in it's simplicity. Honesty, open-mindedness, and willingness. The 3 principles of recovery. Your book takes these and elaborates them beautifully. Thank You."

"I received your book The Traveler's Gift from my mom this past Christmas. She has been trying to get me to read it for about a year now, so when she gave me a copy, I figured I would read it to humor her. I am actually really into the book and really like it. I plan to purchase your entire collection. Reading The Traveler's Gift has really opened my eyes and helped me in so many ways that there is hope to have faith and to follow your dreams! "

"I have shared this book with everyone of my staff and our executive board. I also used it as the theme for a Men's Conference I held in Williamsburg, Virginia. It is also the object of our neighborhood small group study.

This is without a doubt the best book I have ever read, besides the Bible. Each time I read it I get something new."

"I have to tell you that this book will indeed change my life because the principles in it are intended for life changes. Thank you for listening and having empathy for those of us who need to acquire it. God bless you."

"Being a college student, when I hear the word "future" I often associate it with such words: Intimidating, uncertain, and unpredictable. The Traveler's Gift really encouraged me to be enthusiastic, decisive and offered a refusal to settle for mediocrity. The valuable lessons I learned from this book will be taken with me through each season of life I encounter."
