This is a 229-page classic paperback. Death Be Not Proud by John Gunther and tells the story of Johnny Gunther, a young man who died on June 30, 1947. He was only seventeen years old. His father, a distinguished journalist and the author of this book, wrote Johnny's story to help others learn more about the devastating effects of a brain tumor…. No one knew about his illness until fifteen months before his death. Johnny's death made a huge impact on the world, according to his father. He wrote about the letters that came to the family by the hundreds. The parents found out that slides from Johnny's brain would be of import to the world's neurological institute because Johnny's case was rare. He maintained his eyesight and managed to keep comparatively well right up to the point of death. In the second part of the book, the author shared letters that Johnny had written throughout his life…. The letters were followed by entries from Johnny's personal diary. The first entry was in 1944, long before his illness. The last entries were four days before he died. Through these entries, it is clear to the reader that Johnny was obsessed with science and his experiments. In the last part of the book, Johnny's mother reflected on parenting a child who was dying. She talked about life and death and wishes. She reflected on their life together, highlighting the good times, and addressed the areas she wished she had improved upon during his lifetime. The book closes with "Unbeliever's Prayer" written by Johnny slightly over a year before his death.
