An Entrepreneur Grows in a Capitalist Culture: Preparation and Luck tells a very interesting and inspiring story for readers who want to become successful entrepreneurs, a story that is loaded with lessons. Taylor N Thompson Sr. writes with simplicity and the confidence of one who speaks from inside success. I found the author’s life very interesting and enjoyed the fact that he wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and that he has had to endure long hours of grunt hard work. Every story of success involves great preparation, and this book shows readers just how to do it. As one reads from page to page, one is both entertained and informed, having access to some of the management skills and tools required for success in business and in life. This book is a gift for those who want to create their own businesses and those who would love to inspire others to pursue success in business.
