The Art of Marriage by Wilferd Arlan Peterson
You may have already heard this as part of 'The Art of Marriage', one of the most popular readings at wedding services and anniversaries but now for the first time with beautiful illustrations, it is the perfect gift for any couple. The striking simplicity of the words and its beautiful evocation of love makes it a touchstone for every couple, at the start of their relationship or after a lifetime of love.
Very well expressed, this short book contains succinct clues for a long and happy marriage, where the little things matter as much as the big thingsAlthough the cover shows a church wedding, the text is completely secular and therefore is appropriate for civil partnership and wedding ceremonies. The illustrations are lovely and add further depth of understanding to the text. It makes a lovely keepsake for your own wedding and a nice little present for a couple starting on the wonderful adventure of a shared life together. -- Amazon Reviewer

Born in 1900 Wilferd Peterson became a published writer in his teens and by 1961 his regular essays in This Week magazine had made him a national figure.
