Looking for Goodwill

"Has there ever been good news?" Intrigued by that challenging question, father and son Scott and Pat Price undertook an inspiring nationwide odyssey in search of goodwill. They determined to interview people in all fifty states, selecting people at random and asking them about the good things in their lives. The result is a refreshingly original study of attitudes, ambitions, and the condition of the American heart.
What they found in every person, whether a florist in Georgia, a pirate's descendant in Alaska, a carriage driver in New York, or a Bosnian immigrant in North Dakota, is friendliness, trust, optimism, and an inherent desire to encourage others. This remarkable record of their encounters brings to life the fascinating, good-hearted people that Pat and Scott met everywhere during their eleven-month journey. As they bid each person goodbye, the Prices left a ten-dollar bill and the exhortation to use it to spread goodwill. Letters to Pat and Scott from their interview subjects reveal the rich fruit of those randomly distributed gifts and the impact the search for goodwill can have on others lives.
Looking for Goodwill resoundingly confirms that there is a vast reservoir of goodwill in people's hearts all across America, and that there is good news every day and every where if you look for it.
