This I Believe

by Studs Terkel

**** [4/5]

This book is a compilation based on the 1950's radio series and also the modern NPR series. I read this book because my Aunt Cecile had her essay featured in the book. The more interesting part of the story is that I heard her essay broadcast on NPR before I ever met her. More than a year after her essay was read on the radio she married my Uncle. Now the essay is even more important to me because it is about family. All the essays are superb, even the ones I disagree with. Well worth your time.
