Imagine my delight when I found out that the “Midwest Book Review,” a well-respected publication for librarians, published a review of “Learning Later, Living Greater.” 

Here’s what they have to say about my book.

“Lifelong learning expert Nancy Merz Nordstrom and critically acclaimed writer Jon F. Merz present “Learning Later, Living Greater: The Secret for Making the Most of Your After-50 Years,” a guide to reaping the benefits of lifelong learning. From why learning is important to stimulate activity in the aging brain, to pros, cons and distinctions of classroom learning as compared to learning through educational travel or through volunteer work, to where to find the most innovative lifelong learning programs, “Learning Later, Living Greater” effectively demystifies the fun and life-enriching promise of improving one's knowledge. Highly recommended.”

The Midwest Book Review is, and I quote, “The Midwest Book Review is an organization of volunteers committed to promoting literacy, library usage, and small press publishing. We accept no funds from authors or publishers.  The Midwest Book Review publishes the monthly book review magazines "California Bookwatch", "Internet Bookwatch", "Children's Bookwatch", "MBR Bookwatch", "Reviewer's Bookwatch", "Small Press Bookwatch", and "California Bookwatch". All are available for free on the Midwest Book Review website at http://www.midwestbookreview.com.

Needless to say we are very happy about this review and hope it is the first of many.
