The Average Man Speaks Out

About the Book

In The Average Man Speaks Out, life is discussed not by Charles Krauthamer or Tom Brokow, or even Andy Rooney but by the average man. The average man believes that we are all stories and that people need stories to live. Through his collection of stories he gives the average man’s perspective on the world we live in, its people, history, politics, entertainment and miscellaneous topics. Whether you’re average or not, you’ll be entertained, informed, and maybe even a bit surprised as the average man tells about heroes, villains, and opines on, well, everything.
