Raising Up Waltons: A father's heart for his children; reflections on the timeless values showcased in the Depression-era based television series - Paperback

by Jason Pendleton (Author)

For roughly forty years, viewers around the globe have been drawn to The Waltons, a simple family from the Virginia backwoods who specialized in hard work, integrity, and care and concern for each other and their fellow men. The virtues they taught us, though, don't deserve to be relegated to some Blue Ridge Museum of Antiquity. Within these covers, the author has revisited the series, and penned a collection of letters to his children (and to the next generation as a whole) based upon lessons gleaned from the landmark television show. May we be bold enough to swim against the sweeping currents of society, and purposefully instill these timeless values in ourselves and in the next generation.
