These tributes, which extolled the daily kindness and humanity of "a good man," moved his son Mark far more than those who lauded Sarge for his big-stage, headline-making accomplishments. After a lifetime searching for the path to his father's success in the public arena, Mark instead turns to a search for the secret of his father's joy, his devotion to others, and his sense of purpose. Mark discovers notes and letters from Sarge; hears personal stories from friends and family that zero in on the three guiding principles of Sarge's lifeーfaith, hope, and loveーand recounts moments with Sarge that now take on new value and poignancy. In the process, Mark discovers much about himself, as a father, as a husband, and as a social justice advocate. ＜em＞A Good Man＜/em＞ is an inspirational and deeply personal story about a son discovering the true meaning of his father's legacy.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞"Moving and thoughtful." ー＜/strong＞ ＜em＞＜strong＞The Washington Post＜/strong＞＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞"A moving appreciation of Shriver as a father.
