Great book! Interesting topic December 20, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
So many of us are in search of the "fountain of youth." I think Waldo found it in simple living and healthy choices. Great book, with a simple message. Easy to listen to and enjoyable to hear. Quaint. Thanks for sharing your interesting and fascinating life with us.
Amazing and Inspiring December 17, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Mr. McBurney's life has been a long and interesting one. I was especially impressed with the fact that his father lived 40+ years after his first stroke in part because of his doctor who was ahead of his time in his treatment. The author was wise at a young age to see that it might work for him, too. Faith, exercise, fresh fruits and vegetables, with a bit of honey - it's really quite simple. Why don't more of us follow that path? I listened to the audio book and while a professional actor's voice might have been stronger with more inflection, Mr. McBurney's own voice lent an authenticity to the reading that could not be duplicated.
What a person can do! Amazing! May 23, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Wow! Wish I could do some of the things Waldo is doing now! And I'm only 52! Just shows what you can do if you stay close to God. For another good read & to see what a man can do if he stays close to God; try this short book out to experience romance, adventure, and excitement at the End-Days! "Eva-Christ" by myself Mark Foster and availble her on Amazon.com Thanks! Eva-Christ
A great unique view of life! February 1, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
R. Waldo McBurney definitely has a great sense of humor and healthy habits that we should all look at today. I read this brief book and thought it was really great. I initially discovered McBurney as one of the oldest working Americans during a news interview while surfing the 'net. The author's quick wit and solid upbringing, as well as his perseverence to continue to lead an active lifestyle is reflected in this book. Many of the same things he said during his interview were also in this book, but the book provides much more detail into his thoughts. If I live to his age, I hope to write another follow-up to his book to reflect its validity.
looking forward to it January 10, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
To be honest, I have not received this item yet. I saw this man and his book featuered on a Television news show. Accordign to it, he personally signs and mails each copy. This gentleman is over 100 years old and still goes to work every day. I cant wait to get his book.
