Publisher Description: The Gifts of the Shovel is a self-improvement program, business advisory, morality play, and how-to-fully-live-life course all wrapped into an engaging and inspiring novel. The main character is Jason Clark, a man who while becoming wealthy in business has managed to plummet into emotional bankruptcy in the most important aspects of life. Through repeated trials and errors, Jason learns what it truly means to be RICH with the help of friends, an AA group, and a mystical old mentor who reappears at the oddest, but most important times. RICH, in this case, means living the qualities of respect, integrity, compassion and humility. This book is for anyone who aspires to live life to its fullest.

Fore, Baker: - "Baker Fore had multiple dreams about an old prospector, wrote them down in the middle of the night; then Tom Massey used Baker's dreams to develop the storyline for The Shovel.Fore and Massey have been light-heartedly referred to as the Barry & Manilow of self-actualization books - metaphorically speaking, one writes the lyrics and the other adds the melody." |
