The Wisdom of Yawdy Rum offers a fresh, honest look at life, while driving home one of its most basic tenets—the need to slow down and pay attention to the world around us. 

—Retired U.S. Senator Bob Dole

An enthralling novel set in the heart of the French Quarter. Lane’s portrayal of the inner hurricane that causes turmoil in all aspects of our lives is dead on. And the lessons he bestows in The Wisdom of Yawdy Rum are words to live by.

—Twin Cities Jazz Legend, Irv Williams

What a read!  Beignets and chicory coffee, the intimacy of the French Quarter, and that wonderful toe-tapping traditional jazz.  Al would have said, "you’ve got to read this book!" 

—Mrs. Al Hirt
Wife of the late New Orleans Bourbon Street Jazz Legend

A fantastic book about self discovery amidst the chaos of corporate and family life. Yawdy Rum’s lessons for finding balance, setting priorities, and creating positive change in your life were music to my ears.

—Sheila Raye Charles
Daughter to the late, great Ray Charles

Wow, what a trip!  The tension throughout, the promise of revelation, the jazz history, the delights of the French Quarter.  I’m hooked.

Professor Emeritus, Division of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, University of Minnesota

 The Wisdom of Yawdy Rum is the story of a man trying to find his way in his life who meets the right mentor at the right time and is open to learning the lessons he has to teach, even when it happens under incredibly dire circumstances.
