The Sweetest Flower: A Collection of Writings by Augustus M. Price

The Sweetest Flower is a collection of writings by Augustus Murry Price dating back to the 1920s. His original typed works were passed down from generation to generation but laid hidden for decades until his great-grandson, Brandon W. Mosley, began geological research and discovered Gus’ aged works typed on yellowed, pristine papers.

Price reflects on various themes, including the passage of time, spirituality, and moral teachings. His works consistently use metaphors and imagery — like the ceaseless ticking of a watch — to convey messages about life’s transient nature, the role of faith, and the value of virtue. These writings weave an overarching tone of introspection while focusing on ethical living and the pursuit of wisdom. Nearly 100 years after he wrote them, Gus’ words can now see the light of day again.
