"The Go Getter" - By Peter B. Kyne

I came across this book and found it highly inspiring in such a short length.   It offers advice on meeting goals, learning from experience, asking the right questions, and tackling tough projects with unflagging zeal. The book is about how a person most likely to fail in a quest succeeds and exceeds expectations by never letting other people's prejudices stand on his way. The story is about an old lumber company founder, Cappy Ricks, and a young World War I veteran, Bill Peck, who comes to the old captain of industry for a job. The assignment given by Cappy Ricks to   Bill Peck and the way Peck accomplishes it fighting different hurdles is inspiring. I love the words "It shall be done". Peck overcomes outrageous obstacles with his persistence, determination, passion and a giant sense of responsibility. Peck epitomizes the employee who is able to surpass expectations and join the ranks of leadership through undaunted effort. I recommend this book to everyone.
