Download or read book Fuqua written by J. B. Fuqua and published by Taylor Trade Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1965, J.B. Fuqua took over a small brick-and-tile operation and within four years had turned it into a Fortune 500 company. In a fascinating memoir, this legendary deal-maker details his rise from being born a farmer's son to becoming one of the most respected businessmen and philanthropists in America. Born in 1918 in rural Prince Edward County, Virginia, J.B. Fuqua knew by the age of fourteen that he wanted more out of life than being a tobacco farmer. This book describes his early interest in radio and television, and how the transaction of his first deal, a radio station in Augusta, Georgia, was made. Fuqua broadened his education in his youth by borrowing books from the Duke University Library, a favor he repaid years later by endowing Duke's business school. A consummate entrepreneur, he bought or started over forty companies during his long career. He also served in the Georgia State Legislature and was a chairman of the Democratic Party of Georgia. In recent years, he has been lauded for his generous donations to educational and medical institutions. In Fuqua, J.B. Fuqua discusses the highlights of his multi-faceted career. He records not only the details of various deals and the influential faces he has known, but also offers up lessons he has learned along the way about work, family, and life.
Download or read book Darby written by Jonathon Scott Fuqua and published by Candlewick Press. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Darby's first-person narrative is frank and immediate . . . expressing what it's like for an ordinary white kid who suddenly discovers evil — and courage — where she lives." — BOOKLIST "From my back porch, I can see where my best friend lives. Evette’s tenant house sits on my daddy’s property . . . but on account of her being black and me being white, she hardly ever comes in my house, and I don’t go in hers. My daddy says that’s just the way it is." Darby Carmichael thinks her best friend is probably the smartest person she knows, even though, as Mama says, Evette’s school uses worn-out books and crumbly chalk. Whenever they can, Darby and Evette shoot off into the woods beyond the farm to play at being fancy ladies and schoolteachers. One thing Darby has never dreamed of being - not until Evette suggests it - is a newspaper girl who writes down the truth for all to read. In no time, and with more than a little assistance from Evette, Darby and her column in the Bennettsville Times are famous in town and beyond. But is Marlboro County, South Carolina, circa 1926, ready for the truth its youngest reporter has to tell?

Not only is this book the most comprehensive title available on portraiture, but it contains stunning images.

Download or read book Faith and Reason written by Brian Besong and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2019-05-20 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too smart to believe in God? The twelve philosophers in this book are too smart not to, and their finely honed reasoning skills and advanced educations are on display as they explain their reasons for believing in Christianity and entering the Roman Catholic Church. Among the twelve converts are well-known professors and writers including Peter Kreeft, Edward Feser, J. Budziszewski, Candace Vogler, and Robert Koons. Each story is unique; yet each one details the various perceptible ways God drew these lovers of wisdom to himself and to the Church. In every case, reason played a primary role. It had to, because being a Catholic philosopher is no easy task when the majority of one's colleagues thinks that religious faith is irrational. Although the reasonableness of the Catholic faith captured the attention of these philosophers and cleared a space into which the seed of supernatural faith could be planted, in each of these essays the attentive reader will find a fully human story. The contributions are not merely collections of arguments; they are stories of grace.
