Rob Woodfin is a printer. His father was a printer. His grandfather was a printer. For several years, like them, he was also the editor of the local newspaper. After that he managed a large print shop in Chattanooga for 10 years, then set up his own shop once again in South Pittsburg.

This book is a collection of essays about community. It is about issues rather than name-calling. The title, Euphemisms, is meant to convey the attitude of civility. It is, perhaps, a prayer that we might return to a more thoughtful culture of reasoning rather than accusation, of consideration rather than hate.
