Book Description
Soul of a Citizen awakens within us the desire and the ability to make our voices heard and our actions count.

We can lead lives worthy of our convictions.

A book of inspiration and integrity, Soul of a Citizen is an antidote to the twin scourges of modern life-powerlessness and cynicism.

In his evocative style. Paul Loeb tells moving tells moving stories of ordinary Americans who have found unexpected fulfillment in social involvement.

Through their example and Loeb's own wise and powerful lessons, we are compelled to move from passivity to participation.

The reward of our action, we learn, is nothing less than a sense of connection and purpose not found in a purely personal life.
