Legacy Letters: A Short Story of Transformation
Professional money manager, Jim Peters, a committed husband and father of three, is experiencing a critical crisis of confidence, and his typical optimism and resiliency is crumbling. He believes his family’s well-being and his dreams are in jeopardy as he is being pushed out of his job by unscrupulous competition and younger, tech-savvy workers.
On the brink of making costly decisions, Jim is sensing that he’s losing his grip on everything important to him, including his legacy. He is battered by the institutional influences over his life. Jim, however, is about to discover an old way of living that will create a new way of thinking and it will come from a most unusual place.
Through a series of recently discovered historic letters, Jim travels through time. Along his journey, he is given the gifts of perspective, new life, and a renewed spirit. He learns the time-tested secrets to create health, true wealth, and genuine wisdom, re-takes control of his life, and helps lead and transform the lives of his family, friends, colleagues, and community. Legacy Letters is a modern-day parable of one man’s choices and the acquired virtues that create a new life for him.

DiLeonardi: A New Master of the Genre
Legacy Letters is equal to the best of Og Mandino's work. If you liked "The Greatest Salesman In The World", you will love Legacy Letters. I have always been a fan of historical fiction and have no hesitation naming DiLeonardi an author to rank among a list of greats like Ken Follett and Bernard Cornwell. While the word count of this novel is significantly lower than the work of the aforementioned masters, Legacy Letters impact is greater due to the element of value able to be harnessed by a modern reader seeking to accomplish great things in today's world.

Renew and Lead...
Throughout my career as a Naval Officer, I have consistently sought out books that could direct my development as a leader and simply as a person. Throughout the years, I’ve read many Naval and civilian leadership books and Legacy Letters is right up with the best of them. Legacy Letters is a quick, impactful and empowering read which I recommend to my friends, and colleagues. It touches a nerve for self-empowerment and the renewal of long-standing principles that our nation needs to be reminded of. We all need to refresh and re-focus our goals in consideration of the legacy we want to leave. Legacy Letters helps guide and engage readers in that thought-process. This book will call you to live purposefully towards a life that is healthy, wealthy, and wise.

What a gem of a book...
So much so that I have already re-read it! The new MiniBuk format made it easy to hold, carry and reference material. I can see giving it as a gift as the messaging is so beautiful and concise, without having to trudge through 300 pages to obtain it.
Tony crafts a story, with profound messaging throughout, of a family struggling with direction and purpose. Upon finding letters by a founding father in their new home’s attic, conversations ensue between the couple as to how they can redirect their lives.Thus begins our lessons on how to serve one another, build discipline and develop wisdom. With such a creative structure to this book, it wasn’t difficult to form a strategy to put them into place. My takeaway was not to let government and external pressures dictate how I live my life, but rather assess my own “time, talents and treasures” and use them wisely.
Thank you, Tony, for giving clarity as to what what really matters in this lifetime.

Amazing! Truly a gift...
In an age where material things seem to outweigh the importance of meaningful virtues like family, values, and relationships, Legacy Letters asks the reader to question this modern, and often meaningless, way of living.
By presenting questions at the end of each section the reader quickly begins to rethink their life. Legacy Letters is the novel the nation needs now as we seek true meaning and direction. I highly recommend this book and believe if each family read and discussed the key principals, our world would be better off.

We've all faced a crisis in our lives and many times had to make choices that ultimately define who we are. In his latest book, Legacy Letters, DiLeonardi uses historical fiction as a parable to cleverly illuminate a unique path to personal transformation.
