DOMINICA, West Indies, June 30, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- The tales in N.A.N Ducreay's new book, Great World Stories (now available through AuthorHouse) are as interesting and varied in their subject matters as they are in the important lessons they teach readers.
With more than 50 short stories, Ducreay's book draws heavily on humor in these primarily nonfiction tales. From the power of ingenuity in a legal trial to the loyalty of a pet dog, they are vibrantly told and illustrate crucial character traits.
"Many of these stories serve as inspiration to countless readers desirous of upholding the great virtues of honesty, unity, faithfulness, gratitude and many others," Ducreay says.
He writes of a father who shows his son the principles of cooperation, a mother who must take actions against her own child to save him and people who have relied on their work ethic to lift them from poverty into prosperity.
Great World Stories is the perfect getaway for busy readers who want short pieces that take little time to complete but leave a lasting impact. Ducreay has gathered an immense and unique collection of tales from around the world to present a conglomeration of lessons for living.
Born in Wesley, Commonwealth of Dominica, Ducreay started his career as an elementary school teacher before entering the business world. He delved into politics and became a member of Parliament in his home country. Ducreay also served as the minister of trade and production from 1961 to 1970, when he retired.
