<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Ben Bradlee's all-American football player father lost his well-paying job in the Depression and never recovered his income but also never lost his balance and energy.</b> Living on a borrowed estate, he undertook to clear the property, and his young son bonded with his father as they worked alongside each other in the woods. When thirteen-year-old Ben contracted polio, his father nursed him back to health until they could go to work again. <p/>Ben Bradlee tells the story of how this lifelong love of working outdoors enabled him to forge an intimate connection with his own son, Quinn, who was born with a heart defect and is learning disabled. <p/>Quinn Bradlee writes about how his father gave him courage and confidence, about what it is like not just to be the son of <i>the </i>Ben Bradlee but his father's best pal. He tells wistfully how their roles have reversed and how he has become his father's protector. <p/>Sally Quinn, wife and mother, offers her observation on fathers and sons in this joyous celebration of a special relationship.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ben Bradlee was Executive Editor of <i>The Washington Post</i> from 1968 to 1991. <p/>
