Bought Wisdom: Tales of Living and Learning

By Tony Lamair Burks II

When Dr. Tony Lamair Burks II packed the last of his personal belongings that crisp afternoon, he looked around his barren school office once more: What had he learned? How would he be different? What was his Bought Wisdom?

Bought Wisdom: Tales of Living and Learning is an interactive memoir, leadership story, and reflective journal. As a bonus feature, those who write responses to its journal prompts will have written a memoir when they finish reading the book.
