Beha has had much illness in his young life. Beha has had much loss in his young life.

When he lost his job and moved him, he decided to challenge himself to read the entire set of Harvard Classics, a collection of books selected to enhance the education of the common man at a time when few people finished high school and fewer still attended college.

It was a good project for Beha. As you might anticipate, he loved some of the books and loathed others. Still he pressed on. And completed them all.

I love to read books about personal challenges. This is an inspiring and worthy challenge, I think.
