Each individual had a personal story and a great photo of themselves.
I gave this book to a friend just turning 100. She loved it and decided to write her own one page biography and included her portrait as well and added them as final pages. I loved her thoughtfulness. I’m only 80 but think I will do the same but sooner than later!!

Couldn't wait to get this book...
I've never felt the need to write a book review until receiving Paul Mobley's "If I Live to Be 100 - The Wisdom of Centenarians." I was so excited when I received this book but even more so as I dove in and began admiring the images and stories.This is a wonderful book that captures the soul and spirit of these beautiful centenarians. As a Pastor, I believe everyone has a story, and Paul brings these people's stories to life. The images he has made of those that have sat in front of his camera tell a story in themselves. They show character, beauty, contentment, perseverance, and lives well lived. It makes me so happy to see these cherished stories and images documented because they are so rich and full of wisdom that needs to be passed on.Thank you to Paul Mobley and everyone on his team who put together such a treasure of a book.

A gift to the senses.
This book is a Mobley Masterpiece. A gift to the senses. The images are piercing, warm, soul-shaking, and endearing. I learned of the book from the daughter of one of the now 104-year-olds (page 194). He was my dentist in the 1950s, and inspired me into the profession. Mr. Mobley's handling of the images and the text makes the reader feel like an old friend to the subject, and new pal to the photographer. I just purchased 8 more copies for my siblings and some dear friends. I can't figure out how to do a sustained standing ovation in a written review, Paul, but I would if I could. Thank you.TPC

A Spectacular Coffee Table Book and Great Gift to Give!
I bought several of these gorgeous coffee table books to give as birthday gifts and Christmas gifts. I am blown away by Paul Mobley's work! I believe that he is one of the greatest photographers of our time, as he is able to capture the very souls of his subjects. He is a true artist. I have sat spellbound looking at the photographs and reading the life stories of these people that have lived 100 or more years. What an amazing idea that he (Paul) brilliantly executed. I will be buying more and suggest that you do also! You will not be disappointed!

Great insight on living a good life
Great read on people that lived to 100 and beyond and what their life experiences were. I bought the book because my 100 year old aunts were included in the book. The only twins to reach 100! They were featured on the Tonight Show. If you go to YouTube and search - 100 year old twins on the Tonight Show - you will see the full interview with them and also Carol Burnett.
