Book Reviews of The Desiderata of Happiness: A Collection of Philosophical Poems

Book Review: Desiderata by Max Ehrmann
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a collection of short poems written in the traditional
belles lettres style of writing. Some of the poems were purported
to be inscribed on the Old St. Paul's Church. Some quotes are as follows:

- " Be cheerful . Strive to be happy. "

- "Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others
even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story."

The volume speaks of the author's love of the whole world and
deep concern for society. It is an important acquisition for
the young and the young at heart in your home.
