THE BOOK OF CHARLIE
The Book of Charlie chronicles the author's friendship with his extraordinary neighbor, Charlie White, who died at age 109.
Tracing the life of Charlie over the years of his life, the book is an unintentional guide to happiness and longevity. It's also a book about surviving and thriving through adversity and revolutionary change, much like we face in today's fast-paced world where technology is changing the way we live and the pandemic challenges our very lives.
Charlie's way of life was simple but it got him through the best and worst days of his life:
- Do the right thing
- Work hard
- Spread joy
- Take a chance
- Enjoy wonder
And most of all, just plow on through adversity to find happiness.
David Von Drehle is a columnist for The Washington Post, where he writes about national affairs and politics from a home base in the Midwest. He joined The Post in 2017 after a decade at Time magazine, where he wrote more than 60 cover stories as editor-at-large. He is the author of a number of books, including the award-winning bestseller "Triangle: The Fire That Changed America".
