The Clipper Ship Strategy: For Sucess in Your Career, Business and Investments (by William P. Snavely, Emeritus Professor of Economics, George Mason University)
Richard Maybury's new book, "The Clipper Ship Strategy," is an outstanding addition to his series dealing with the subjects of economics, law, politics, business and freedom. His extraordinary ability to present complex subjects in simple, common-sense terms, spiced with humor and fascinating examples, makes this book and the others in the series must reading for both the young and adults, alike. In fact, the entire series should be a required, integral, component of the social studies curriculum in all public and private schools. This would bring a quantum leap upward in the quality of citizenship in this country in a single generation.

The Clipper Ship Strategy: For Sucess in Your Career, Business and Investments (by Cathy Duffy, Author, "Christian Home Educators' Curriculum Manual")
While Maybury's 'lessons' are valuable for everyone, I especially recommend this book to potential entrepreneurs and businessmen. I would make it required reading for them if I could. (Those who might be employees can also find out how to select a career and/or company to work for that is likely to remain economically healthy!)
