"Our editors selected the best of the best from the last 50 years." --Jacket.

"LOVE that endures any obstacle. The kindness of strangers. Unlikely friendships, and people who are making a difference. These are the stories that you just have to share, the ones that will make you smile, teach you something new, and motivate you to connect across the generations. These are the stories you will find in this handsome volume. With more than 40 memorable selections -- including many from popular Reader's Digest columns, such as Drama in Real Life; Everyday Heroes; and Laughter, the Best Medicine -- this uplifting and heartwarming book will affirm your belief in the essential goodness of the human spirit." --Jacket.

"From everyday heroes to larger-than-life characters, small moments to historic events, the unforgettable stories in Readers's Digest come alive as never before in this keepsake book. Our editors have combed the archives for the narratives -- sometimes funny, often poignant, always inspirational that still strike deep chords today, such as: The miracle of the old letter that led to a couple being reunited after nearly 60 years apart ; The courageous actions of the lifesaving heroes who responded to the Oklahoma City bombing ; The hysterical reality of a husband and wife who leave the city for farm life and find it's not quite what they dreamed. In addition the book includes bonus material never published in the magazine plus stunning photographs, hilarious jokes and cartoons, and true stories from readers like you."--Back cover.
