A solider. A cop. A father. A dying man with something left to say. In a lesson in Dying, Nathan Harrison lays his soul bare with unflinching honesty, deep southern grace and a heart that refuses to quit, even when the body does. This is more than a memoir. It's a blueprint for living through the hardest truths. Through reflections, personal letters and powerful poetry, Nathan shares stories of love and loss, of justice and trauma, of family, faith, and legacy. It's a final message written with urgency, not to mourn his life, but to pass it on. From army memories and courtroom victories to the quiet confessions of hospice care, this book doesn't shy away from pain. Instead, it invites you to sit with it, learn from it and maybe even heal from it. A lesson in Dying is a love letter to those left behind, his children, his wife, his brothers, his friends and maybe even you. Because in the end, this isn't a book about death. It's a book about what matters most while we're still here.
