Synopsis
David Lewis had made it. He had built one of the country's early fee-only financial planning firms, pioneering an approach that put clients first when the rest of the industry ran on commissions. He knew the story of how he got there: the Appalachian boy who overcame dyslexia, stepped out of a job at his grandfather's bank, and rose through grit and integrity.
But then he started writing. And the stories fell apart.
What began as a simple memoir project became an excavation. Memories Lewis had repeated for decades collapsed under investigation. And the chapters he had buried for forty years demanded their place on the page: a brother's betrayal that ended his banking career, a marriage that shattered, a period when no one would hire him.
A New True to Me is both a memoir and a meditation on memoir itself. Lewis traces his Appalachian roots, his ancestors' complicated legacy of ambition and slavery, and the collapse of a family bank that spanned three generations. But this is also a book about what happens when we turn to face the past and find it staring back, unrecognizable.

About the Author
David Lewis describes himself as the product from a long line of storytellers. His friends and financial planning clients remember him for stories he used to illustrate advice and make it memorable. Indeed, the expression that became the cornerstone of his firm's marketing, "there is more to money than money," was conceived in a staff meeting story while his team was discussing ways to help a clients understand the complexity of a decision they needed to make.
When David wrote financial newsletters, he explained current events in terms of historical and economics stories that gave them context.
When David talks about his photographs, he is more likely to describe the emotions he felt when the visions for them entered his mind than the technical and equipment decisions he used to share those feelings.
From the Inside Flap
Lewis traces his path from an Appalachian childhood shaped by dyslexia and religious trauma to a professional life caught in the turbulent wake of the Butcher Banking Empire. Along the way, he confronts uncomfortable ancestral secrets, survives a multi-million-dollar lawsuit, and ultimately walks away from a corrupt system to build a business founded on fiduciary integrity. A New True to Me is an evocative, honest reflection on the power of personal authenticity and the lifelong responsibility to "straighten out" the errors of the past.
