" This is history without the dull parts.
This is history with only one date to remember.
This is history with a lot of white space.
From the buffalo who roamed, their hooves thundering like, we don't know, thunder or something ... onward, this is instant, very up historical writing for readers who tire easily after all that lip-moving. "

There are some blue stains on the inside of the dust jacket as well as along the side edges of the pages.
No torn or ripped pages.

" Working up the corporate ladder is all well and good for most people, but you are not "most people." You are a highly motivated individual who wants to be on the fast track, and you cannot afford to fritter away valuable time working diligently and competently on the job. You need the surefire tips in CLAW YOUR WAY TO THE TOP! "

• " " A good resume is more than a piece of paper. It can mean the difference between getting a job and not even coming close. "
• " Today, everybody is pro-business. People, who only a few years back, would have hurled pig blood at Lee Iacocca for some symbolic reason or another now think he should run for president. "
• " Can you get a job in business? Heck yes!
  Don't you listen to those Negative Nellies who tell you there aren't any good jobs anymore, just because the steel, automobile, shoe, clothing, railroad, and agricultural industries have all collapsed!"
• " I don't mean to suggest for a moment that all it takes to be a top executive is a custom-tailored European suit. You also need the correct shirt and tie. "
• " Remember, your subordinates are not machines. They are human beings with the same dreams as you. OK, maybe not all the same dreams. Probably they don't have the one where you're naked in a vat of Yoo-Hoo with the Soviet gymnastic team. " "
