Book excerpt: The Letter Men: Forty Years of Brotherhood is a memoir of friendship, trust, and respect among men. Days prior to graduating from college in 1977, a random group of fraternity brothers gathered at their favorite bar. They toasted to their upcoming freedom from the rigors of college, to becoming independent adults, and to the promise of staying connected. Over forty years they exchanged 630 letters detailing their lives, loves, successes, and struggles. Marriages, children, career challenges, relocations, health issues, and even death--nothing stopped them from corresponding and sharing their innermost thoughts, something uncommon for a group of men. Diversity in political thought, economic class, and sexual preference didn't keep them from listening to and accepting one another. With each set of letters exchanged, their bond of brotherhood grew remarkably stronger--much stronger than when they were college seniors.
