Profiles in Character delves into individual character attributes that shaped and informed these sixteen Americans in their vital roles in history. What singular attribute gave each of them the strength to take monumental risks for a cause or a belief? Was it an early childhood experience? A family dynamic or role model? Their faith? Readers can glean the difficulty in the life paths these individuals chose-one that threatened high risk and promised high rewards, though not for themselves. That is a true measure of character.Dr. Jennifer London
