Book Description
Walk the streets of Chicago and discover why the town that brought us Michael Jordan, Al Capone, and Oprah is anything but a ''second City.'' Chicago's diverse neighborhoods represent a true melting pot of America - from Little Italy to Greek town, Chinatown to New Chinatown, and La Villita to the Ukrainian Village. It's also the most walk able city in the country, with flat streets laid out in a sensible grid and 21 miles of stunning lakeshore. The 31 walks described here include trivia about architecture, political gossip, and the city's rich history, plus where to dine, get the best deep-dish pizza, visit world-class museums, have a drink, and shop.

Book Description
"Not just another business autobiography, this is a fascinating and uplifting look into one man's leadership journey through poverty, hardship, racism, and betrayal to becoming one of the most inspirational business leaders of our time." -Jane Marvin, former SVP human resources, Ross Stores, Inc. Bob Knowling is respected by many of America's most admired executives, from Jack Welch to Michael Bloomberg. He has led large organizations through periods of dramatic transformation; management guru Noel Tichy calls him "a change agent's change agent." But even more impressive than Knowling's résumé is the road he took to the top. He grew up as one of thirteen children in Indiana, shuttling between the homes of his divorced parents, surrounded by crime, poverty, drug abuse, and racism. Later he lived and worked on his grandparents' farm in Missouri. No one encouraged him to have big ambitions or even bothered to ask, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" But Knowling used his athletic and academic talents to earn a college scholarship and later an MBA. He became an expert at leading change-helping others see a better future, then work hard to make it real. Knowling's story proves that almost any disadvantage can be overcome with persistence and a passion for excellence. And it teaches us how to embrace change rather than cling to the past. It is easy to lose sight of our potential in a time of economic turmoil, joblessness, and confusion. Knowling reminds us that none of those conditions is permanent and, more important, that none of them excuses us from making a concerted effort at whatever we try to do. As he puts it, "You turn around organizations, in most cases, by turning around individuals. . . . The real lesson of transformation is that it happens not in companies and not in offices, but in lives." Knowling believes that we do not define ourselves by our upbringing or the external conditions of our lives. It's our response to those conditions that counts. It's not where you came from; it's what you do with your potential. You'll be amazed to learn where Knowling came from and how he got from a really distant "there" to a very inspiring "here."

Book Description
The photo is of Possum Walk School in 1989. After the school was no longer utilized as a school, it served as a small barn housing animals and storage for hay. The lean to at the side of the building was a later addition. The era was loosely called the "dirty thirties" because there was a national depression. Blanche is a young lady with a two-year teaching certificate. She is ready for her first job and prepared to teach at the elementary grade level. However, she discovers a tight job market and takes temporary employment until an unexpected teaching opportunity is presented. Though it isn't what she anticipated or hoped for, she gratefully accepts, never doubting that as a teacher she has much to teach the children. In the days ahead, she becomes aware that her perceptions of what she would give the children were not entirely realistic, for the children of Possum Walk School had much to teach their teacher.
