Life's Lessons : A Successful Collection of Failures

Signed by both authors, Ted and Rick Fearnley, on the title page. Some shelf wear - corner bumps.

When Ted Fearnley was told he had cancer he was anxious to distribute his family heirlooms to his children and grandchildren. However, his oldest son, Rick, wanted only one thing from his Dad: Ted’s stories. All his life, Rick had listened to his father’s comical stories of chance and misadventure. He wanted a record of the craziness to share with his children, and to carry on the family tradition of storytelling by taking it to the next level. Together Ted and Rick began tapping out stories of Ted’s childhood, and continued with stories of Rick’s upbringing and the lives of the generation that followed. In the end, four generations of their humorous history had been preserved, as only they could tell them!
