Andrews lived a relatively normal life until the age of nineteen, when both his parents died, his mother from cancer, his father in an automobile accident. Andrews says he made some bad choices at this point in his life found himself homeless, sleeping occasionally under a pier on the gulf coast or in someone's garage. He begain to ask himself, "Is life just a lottery ticket, or are there choices one can make to direct his future?" Over time, he read more than two hundred biographies of great men and women. How did they become the people they were, he wondered. Were they simply born this way? Or were there decisions made at critical junctures in their lives that led to such success? Andrews finally determined that there were seven characteristics that each person had in common. This became the basis for his story in The Traveler's Gift.

This book was just full of wisdom and advice for practical life. It may have been a bit much in one area and lacking the next section, but it eventually balanced out in the end.
It took me a bit to get into due to the writing style. I seldom come across the style that Andrews used but once I got used to it, I didn't notice. Granted, it did take awhile to get used to it.
I'd recommend this book to fans of authors like Richard Paul Evans and David Rawlings.
