Synopsis

After the publication of journalist Russert's book about his father, he received thousands of letters from people who wanted to tell him about their own fathers, ordinary men who were remembered and cherished for some of their best moments-of advice, tenderness, strength, honor, discipline, and occasional eccentricity. Most of these daughters and sons were eager to express the gratitude they had carried with them through the years. Others wanted to share lessons and memories and, most important, pass them down to their own children. This book is for all fathers, young or old, who can learn from the men in these pages how to get it right, and to understand that sometimes it is the little gestures that can make the big difference for your child.--From publisher description.

Publisher's note

The host of Meet the Press and best-selling author of Big Russ and Me sheds new light on fatherhood and the relationship between parent and child as he discusses what we can learn from our fathers about humor, discipline, values, tradition, pride, loss, and love.

Annotation

Overwhelmed by incredible reader responses to his memoir BIG RUSS & ME, journalist and author Tim Russert compiled a touching book filled with people's personal stories and anecdotes about the love and support fathers have given their daughters and sons. Interwoven with Russert's own stories about his son, Luke, tales run the gamut from the serious--a usually taciturn father's emotional reaction to his son's impending departure for Vietnam--to the endearing--warm memories of dads comforting their daughters after break-ups--and much more.

This is a incredibly touching and profound book. It seems especially poignant now, with the unfortunate passing of one of the greatest political reporters and analysts. He will be greatly missed and will forever be remembered as our go-to guy for election coverage and much much more.
