About the Book
It is a question everyone embarking upon his or her journey through life must face, namely, how can I live a happy life in the face of a world indiff erent at best and sometimes hostile? In this brilliant new book, Upward Journey, George Tomezsko poses this question and proceeds to answer it via a series of essays wherein he dares to dance the tide and defi es the forces of political correctness with a smile on his face, resolve in his heart, and clarity of mind. This veritable feast of ideas is a real treat for a soul looking to go beyond contemporary and fashionable opinions in search of real comfort, hope and inspiration. As such, it serves as a nice introduction to the fi eld of philosophy.
About the Author
George Tomezsko is a writer, essayist and historian with several previous books to his credit. His major interest in history is the War Between the States. The war in the Shenandoah attracted his attention when he wrote an earlier book, An Afternoon in May, that told the story of the Corps of Cadets from the Virginia Military Institute at the Battle of New Market in 1864. He wrote the present book to ensure the real significance of the military drama then being played out in the Shenandoah Valley is not forgotten.
