From childhood we are taught these creeds of the American dream. But then boredom or disappointment seep into our lives. Or we are confronted with bigger shocks - divorce, depression, or death. No longer dreaming, suddenly we are wide awake. Donald McCullough helps us go beyond the American dream by giving us the whole story. We need goals that are more deeply satisfying than mere success. We need a view of life that is realistic enough to deal with its down side and big enough to include all its joys.
