A Thought-Provoking Read
Hubbard offers much wisdom with regard to life, love, health, leadership and creativity. As I read, I couldn't help feeling I would have loved working in his little shop. (Of course, I adore reading Sam Torode; anything his fingerprints are on is worth at least one reading - probably more.)
