superb blurb

from Jim Toedtman, Editor of the AARP Bulletin

“If you’re seeking the diet, the pills and the shortcuts to the fountain of youth, you’ll be disappointed. Instead, Staying Vertical presents the combined wisdom of a savvy, enlightened  collection of people who once past their 80s chose to remain engaged, active, productive and positive, at home and at work. Their numbers are growing, and thanks to Ashton Applewhite, a shrewd chronicler and story-teller, we are inspired by their lessons.”
