I think it's interesting that the author thinks that it's important to praise and honor people while they are still alive. Sad that this book needs more editing. Great review.

This sounds like a very sweet book, and as special as Earle is, I can’t help but think Linda is even more special. I look forward to sampling her book.

:) Okay, so this review is written well! From this review we can say that Linda was a loving and caring wife and that Earle appreciated her well enough and respected that she had that sort of love for him that she wrote this book about him. You can get a good gist of how Earle's personality will be. It was a good review though. Well done!

It's so sweet that a wife is the author of her husband's biography. It's shows the love, respect and admiration they have for each other. Thanks for the great review.

couldn't agree more on this. Sounds like a beautiful read! Thank you for sharing!

I personally think every good person deserves to be appreciated. Most time people give verbal compliments. But Linda Eatmon-Jones goes a step further and put it in writing. Imagine the pride she has for her husband enough to do that. Beautifully written review.

It's nice that the author created this book to showcase the attributes of her husband. Earle Jones sounds like a passionate and dedicated person. Although this isn't a book I feel compelled to read, I'm glad the author completed this labor of love. Great review.

I'm glad you loved Earle's character and I'm sure his story is an inspiration to everyone. However, I'm not a huge fan of biographies so I won't be reading the book. Great review!

In the 'Official Review: Touchstone by Linda Eatmon-Jones' each word is a stepping stone to our progress. 'His professional life is matched by his love for family.' Well expressed! I like the emphasis on the professional life of the author's husband in the review. Also, I cherish the idea of praising and honoring people while they are still alive!

I was impressed by how many people thought highly of this man. Not usually a reader of biographies, I enjoyed this review and the emotion that went into the story.

I like her logic in what is lead to creating behaviors. I am very interested in reading the story because I myself csn not imagine a world with very little technology and everything that has come to create so much ease then to add to it the behaviors of others they were forced to suffer and survive through. Most of all these stories are inspiring in my mind's eye.

Not a book for me, but I love that Mrs. Jones cherishes her husband so much that she wrote a memoir about his good deeds and accomplishments. Thank you for your lovely review :)
