Our State Flowers: Alabama's Camelia to the U.S. Virgin Island's Yellow Cedar, (Hardcover)

A spinoff from Soul Talk (ISBN 0-7388-5652-5 ), this book showcases the floral art of my sister-in-law, Delia Daley, presenting her drawings of the officially designated flowers for the Fifty States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands along with official mottoes and a very brief commentary for reflection. The intent is to provide relaxation and an opportunity to appreciate the original ideas that served to guide the founding and development of the United States.

I am retired from a 30-year career of claims investigation and contract resolution, which is why I like to write about things I investigate. I enjoy traveling with my x-wife and partying with our four children and the grand-kids. Photography, so essential to legal work, remains an on-going passion.
