Teaching Fools: Masters and Mentors - Paperback
Description
by William D. Dyer (Author)
On the surface, Teaching Fools is about carpentry, design, and artistry, but it's also about the complex human condition. Written with a sense of humor, Dyer's book tells the story of building his cabin on Lake Superior's South Shore and the myriad of characters that make that happen. At the center of the storm stands Howard Bowers. Howard is both a political "lefty" and a redneck prone to political incorrectness. Though he does not suffer fools kindly, he is also incredibly generous with his time, inviting others into his projects, and selflessly teaching the skills he's acquired over his 50+ year career.
Dyer's cabin would be Howard's final outdoor project. A capstone project that only Howard could complete. Neither Socrates nor Howard would ever admit to being one, but, as Dyer's book will show, the best teaching is the kind that doesn't profess; and it's the inductive stuff that binds everything in the book together.
Teaching fools.
