    About this ebook

    Of Great Character is a social thriller. It demonstrates the principle that true greatness is often found in ordinary circumstances. The book uses the often thrilling events of the pea harvest to illustrate this principle.

    The book begins in the Old Prussia House, one of Europe's finest restaurants. Here, a pea harvester orders only sweet peas as he tells the tales of interesting, comical and devastating events that happened in the pea field. The greatness found in the characters working there is compelling.

    The book is a must-read, both for people who enjoy good stories and for people who are interested in contemplating the deeper questions in life.
