Book excerpt: Advice For My Grandchildren is a collection of anecdotes and ideas inspired by the author's grandparents, with whom he spent many boyhood hours. As generations and circumstances change, so do the experiences of our elders, and they cannot resist passing these experiences on to their offspring. In the minds of grandparents this advice is invaluable and timeless. In the minds of grandchildren it is often boring and irrelevant. This collection is broken loosely into three categories entitled People, Places, and Things. Reminiscences are not chosen for any special purpose other than to pass on some of the lessons the author has learned, often at great expense or embarrassment. This brief volume may help grandchildren everywhere get a jump on the competition, if not on life itself. We can always hope that they might pass some of these stories on to their grandchildren, perhaps 50 or 100 years from now. What better legacy?
