Book Description
Excerpt from Nat Goodwin's Book In penning memoirs or autobiographing it is extremely difficult to avoid writing impersonally, yet I shall strive to avoid it as much as possible, not so much from a sense of duty as from a standpoint of mercy. I have never enjoyed reading about myself and I am firmly convinced that there are few who have. Perhaps, if I am tempted during this review to give myself an opinion of myself, it may be received with favor even by those critics who have never agreed with any of my characterizations. I started this little work with some degree of terror. I had such a poor background to frame my somewhat checkered career upon. I fully realized that a man must be a very great person, or at least imagine himself to be, to write an autobiography. But finally after listening to the advice of friends I approached myself, albeit surprised at my temerity. After having read many autobiographies I discovered that most nearly-great persons who indulge in the dissipation of giving to the world their opinions of themselves were either born in dilapidated garrets or on unproductive farms. As there were no trees in my garden of youth nor a candle placed in an empty bottle to shed its effulgence upon my future life I wondered how I could diversify and be truthful, yet entertaining. A feeling of apprehension akin to that which always follows the first night of one of my productions took hold of me.

Book Description
Excerpt from Sir Goodwin's Folly, Vol. 2 of 3: A Story of the Year 1795 Tradespeople took down their shutters, and business began. The landlord of the Light Horseman stood at his door in his shirtsleeves, with one eye on his potman, who was cleaning out the bar, and the other on the columns of the Public Advertiser, which he held in his hand. Occasionally he raised both his visual organs for the purpose of surveying mankind, as mankind appeared over the way. Either something he saw, or something he did not see, seemed to surprise him; he raised his shaggy grey eyebrows with an air of astonishment, and addressed his potman in these words: "Why, Peter, they've still got their shutters up over at the barber's shop. What's the reason of that?" "I can't say, master," replied Peter, leaning on his broom, as he looked out of the door. "They're mostly as regular as clockwork. Their 'prentice sweeps out his hair jest as I'm a sweeping out my sand and sawdust. But I ain't a seen nobody this morning." "'Tis strange," observed the landlord. "Whatever his other faults may be, Chigwood's usually an early bird in the morning." "Sarah Jane says she dreamt about wild beastesses," remarked Peter. "She woke up in a flight, and heard the barber's bears growling as plain as if they was out on the pavement. She says she heard wheels and woices a whispering."

Leadership
Author: Doris Kearns GoodwinPublisher: Simon & Schuster
ISBN: 1476795932
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
Now an epic documentary event on the HISTORY Channel! The illuminating, bestselling exploration on leadership from Pulitzer Prize–winning author and presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin, and also the inspiration for the HISTORY Channel multipart series Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt. “After five decades of magisterial output, Doris Kearns Goodwin leads the league of presidential historians” (USA TODAY). In her “inspiring” (The Christian Science Monitor) Leadership, Doris Kearns Goodwin draws upon the four presidents she has studied most closely—Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon B. Johnson (in civil rights)—to show how they recognized leadership qualities within themselves and were recognized as leaders by others. By looking back to their first entries into public life, we encounter them at a time when their paths were filled with confusion, fear, and hope. Leadership tells the story of how they all collided with dramatic reversals that disrupted their lives and threatened to shatter forever their ambitions. Nonetheless, they all emerged fitted to confront the contours and dilemmas of their times. At their best, all four were guided by a sense of moral purpose. At moments of great challenge, they were able to summon their talents to enlarge the opportunities and lives of others. Does the leader make the times or do the times make the leader? “If ever our nation needed a short course on presidential leadership, it is now” (The Seattle Times). This seminal work provides an accessible and essential road map for aspiring and established leaders in every field. In today’s polarized world, these stories of authentic leadership in times of apprehension and fracture take on a singular urgency. “Goodwin’s volume deserves much praise—it is insightful, readable, compelling: Her book arrives just in time” (The Boston Globe).
