Barriers
The Life and Legacy of Tom Evans
With our nation divided between left and right, Barriers reflects on a time when politics worked in Washington. Tom Evans was the lone representative from Delaware.
Barriers is a window into his life’s work. Filled with stories and photos of presidents, congressmen, fellow golfers, and family, this book reveals a man determined to use his gifts to make a difference. It speaks to a common-sense approach to legislation and consensus-building in interactions with others that got lost in the last decades since he served. It’s about being a workhorse, not a showhorse, and treating people with respect.
Tom’s legacy is a message for those serving in political office and a call to citizens — use your voices before we cease to have them.

Planning a birthday party can be both time-consuming and stressful. Lois Hoffman has created a wonderful resource to make the process less daunting for busy parents. The Almost Perfect Birthday Party offers a practical, hands-on approach that addresses every aspect of putting together a memorable day for the birthday child and guests. In addition to helping readers plan a party, Hoffman also provides valuable advice in dealing with the unexpected. I plan to buy several copies as gifts.
