This sequel to "The Ultimate Gift" is well done and inspiring. I didn't feel it quite lived up to the first, but it is close. This one is told by the judge that is presiding over the trial where the greedy Stevens clan is contesting the will of Red Stevens for grandson Jason's share that was distributed as a result of the Ultimate Gift. It is told in much the same format as the first with the chapters covering "The Life of Work", "The Life of Laughter", etc. The judge applies these things he is learning through his experience in the trial to his own life as well as making the decision of who is right in a trial involving billions of dollars. The tale is moving, humorous and inspiring.
