Sinopse

“Bitter Brew deftly chronicles the contentious succession of kings in a uniquely American dynasty. You’ll never crack open a six again without thinking of this book.”—John Sayles, Director of Eight Men Out and author of A Moment in the Sun 
The creators of Budweiser and Michelob beers, the Anheuser-Busch company is one of the wealthiest, most colorful and enduring family dynasties in the history of American commerce. In Bitter Brew, critically acclaimed journalist William Knoedelseder tells the riveting, often scandalous saga of the rise and fall of the dysfunctional Busch family—an epic tale of prosperity, profligacy, hubris, and the dark consequences of success that spans three centuries, from the open salvos of the Civil War to the present day.

    What does it take to become successful? For Jay Parrish, it means having an uncompromising dream to do what he loves and make something of himself using the skills he’s crafted. His father is uncompromising as well, believing that success comes from one specific path: go to college, get a degree, get a good job. When these two uncompromising elements eventually collide, it results in the shattering of an already broken family. With nothing but his clothes, toolbox, and the support of a very helpful friend, Jay must now do what he’s always said he’d do. He must become a success in his own way and on his own merit. Poor Dad, Rich Son is the story of what it means to break tradition, take charge of your own life, and the work it takes to turn a dream into reality. This story puts a modern spin on success that will resonate with readers who feel pressured to go down the “old school” route of prosperity. It gives a fresh take that will validate those going through the same struggles as Jay, and will show ways to be successful on their own merit with what they already have.

    The Way We'll Be - The Zogby...

    In this far-reaching examination of contemporary American culture, John Zogby, one of the nation's foremost pollsters, explores who today's Americans are, identifying patterns in our social makeup that hint at the way we'll be. Companies from multinational corporations down to family-owned small businesses can benefit from this detailed information about where we are and where we're going.Zogby gets to the bottom of this topic by doing what he does best: conducting and analyzing surveys. The conclusions outlined in The Way We'll Be are drawn from literally thousands of polls posed to the broadest possible cross-section of Americans since the 1960s.However, Zogby's complex research techniques are nowhere near as astounding as his conclusions: that the American Dream is in great transition-that a new American consensus is building. According to Zogby, four meta-movements are redefining what we want, what we expect of our leaders, and what we hope for:-We are learning to live with limits on everything-from the resources we consume to the exercise of national power abroad.-Led by the youngest adults, we are embracing diversity and redefining ourselves not by nationality but as world citizens.-Simultaneously, more and more of us are rejecting materialism and looking inward for guidance and sustenance.-We are demanding authenticity-in politicians, products, and our daily encounters-like never before.These are the plate tectonics of American society today, and they define us as much as opening the frontier defined early American settlers. They shape our national character. Zogby concludes his discussion of each movement with a list of "rules" for businesses looking to sell everything from automobiles to political candidates.
