As president of a Baltimore-based company, Bob Lee was looking forward to RV retirement: He and his wife Anne would buy a motor home and tour the country, leaving corporate life far behind. Then a few life-changing books threw him a detour. Rather than taking in the sights from behind a steering wheel, Bob decided to hit the road on his bike, covering more than 65,000 miles in an effort to raise money for cancer, ALS, and hospice.
Here are a few of the books that Bob says inspired him. See if they challenge your thinking, too. To learn more about Bob's journey and his fundraising progress, visit his website, 3reasons.org.
