My Brother's Keeper

The advantage of having lessons learned by those who went before shared with us can be invaluable. If we choose to listen and learn we avoid the labor of tilling the same soil and moving directly to planting and harvesting.
Here, in My Brother's Keeper is a collection of letters from James Alexander to his younger brother, on the virtues and vices, the duties and dangers of youth. These are advice to heed and lessons to learn to aid in our daily life.
