Publisher's summary
As a boy, Dick Falkner ran away from abject poverty and an abusive alcoholic father. Sixteen years later, he finds himself hungry of body and empty of spirit in a Midwestern town. Although he finds no help in this so-called Christian town, he is eventually taken in by George Udell, a local publisher and kindhearted man. Through hard work and Christian morals, this man, who becomes known as "that printer of Udell’s", rises above his past to a new, inspiring life with God.
Harold Bell Wright (1872-1944) was a best-selling author who is said to have been the first American writer to sell a million copies of a novel. More than 21 movies were made or claimed to have been made from his stories, including Gary Cooper’s first major movie The Winning of Barbara Worth and the John Wayne film The Shepherd of the Hills. Behind all of his works lies the simple desire to write about the goodness of mankind.

Presented as the archetypal, ideal hero of the "western" genre (which was novelized for the very first time in this same book), the Virginian, a foreman at Shiloh Ranch, carries a strong sense of justice.

Then the archaeologists and grave robbers came in search of the fabled Jewel of Seven Stars, which they found clutched in the hand of the mummy. Few heeded the ancient warning, until all who came in contact with the Jewel began to die in a mysterious and violent way, with the marks of a strangler around their neck.

Story
A member of the landed gentry, with a seemingly guaranteed income from his estate in the country, Oblomov lives in Petersburg, uninterested in the business that provides his living and barely aware that the revenue is diminishing. Not that he leads a dissolute life of extravagance, balls and entertainment. Instead he is a dreamer, a sybarite, content above all to spend most of the day supine, in bed. The novel opens with Oblomov thus ensconced, attended only by his dirty, grumbling, indolent servant Zahar, who has looked after him since childhood, catering to his every need.

Ronald Reagan is hailed today for a presidency that restored optimism to America, engendered years of economic prosperity, and helped bring about the fall of the Soviet Union. Yet until now little attention has been paid to the role Reagan's personal spirituality played in his political career, shaping his ideas, bolstering his resolve, and ultimately compelling him to confront the brutal - and, not coincidentally, atheistic - Soviet empire.

Story
Here is a land where a man, to live, must be a man. It is a land of granite and marble, strong stone and gold—and a man’s strength must be as the strength of the primeval hills. It is a land of oaks and cedars and pines—and a man’s mental grace must be as the grace of the untamed trees. It is a land of far-arched and unstained skies, where the wind sweeps free and untainted, and the atmosphere is the atmosphere of those places that remain as God made them—and a man’s soul must be as the unstained skies, the unburdened wind, and the untainted atmosphere.

It is worth it!!!!
While hanging out with some friends talking about Christianity and how the church as a whole is corrupt and fake, one of my friends recommended this book. He mentioned that this book walks thru those same concerns and tries to address the issue of how the church ought to be. After finishing the book today I would have to agree. My favorite part in the book has to do with one man saying over and over “I wash my hands clean of this…I want nothing to do with it.” And then that man gets the best correct over, “yeah, you wash your hands clean. Just like Pilot washed his hands clean as he surrendered Jesus to be crucified!” (Keep in mind these are my words and not exactly the words from the book!). I wish I could have been in the book at the moment to have seen the face of the horrible Christian man. It is exactly how church members act and sometimes they, and even I, need a good slapping the face!
The reader for this Audio book is absolutely amazing! I felt like his different voices helped me visualize each character. I also felt like it helped the story flow smoothly without any bumps. I hate readers who are boring to listen to. It makes the story feel long and miserable. This reader was SO good!
I would recommend this to someone who wants to see how the church ought to treat others and how it should help society! I would also recommend this to someone who wants a good storyline that has good character development.

Some inspiring parts
I was disappointed by the almost nonchalant way the taking of another person's life was mentioned, with even the main character being willing to take up a weapon against another human being. However there were some very pertinent social and church issues raised and some thought-provoking ideas presented. All in all, I'm glad I listened to it.

Inspired to read by the movie, Reagan
My husband and I enjoyed seeing the movie Reagan so much and immediately wanted to read the book referred to in the movie as one that had inspired Ronald Reagan as a young boy. It wasn’t easy finding out what the book was, but finally I discovered That Printer of Udell’s. I was pleased to also find it was available on audible and we began listening to it right away. It was very well written and masterfully narrated. It kept our attention very well and we are sorry the story is over. I know I will recommend the book again and again to people who are looking for inspiration and purpose. Well worth the time to listen.

Regan was right
I can see how RR was influenced by this work. I must say that the use of the N word in the final chapter reminds me of why it is so detestable. And yet that is from one of the most detestable characters in the book and thus the point.
Further it is sad to see how the truth about the church 120 years ago remains the same today. The more things change the more they stay the same.
