Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of World War II, the young girl had no idea she was the answer to a dying old man's prayer when along came a soldier into her life. Whether it was the power of the unknown prayer or the persistence of the soldier, that chance meeting changed her life into a roller coaster ride that was filled with fun and zany antics. Along Came a Soldier is a page turner in the style of June Harman Betts' first two books, Father Was A Caveman and We Were Vagabonds. It recreates the life of an American family immediately following World War II into the turbulent years of the Vietnam War. COMMENTS FROM ACTUAL READERS: I enjoyed June Harman Betts' articles in our local paper for years. Needless to say, I was thrilled to hear that she had written a book. AND WHAT A READ! ...As she did so well in her newspaper articles, she takes us to a place of memories, romance, heart-filled times of joy and sorrow-all while sharing the still unwinding story of our greatest generation. Dianne Cline, Denison University ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As June Harman Betts pens the true story of the family's history, one becomes riveted by the highlights and heartbreaks of this intriguing family. The reader is drawn into the family's history with her ability to bring back memories of the reader's own bygone days through her vivid description of the various areas of the country where the family lived. One looks forward to her third book as she continues to weave her story with the young girl's marriage to a young soldier and their life together. James Ritchey, Newark, Ohio ...Father Was A Caveman was so great, especially when it described days of long ago. I enjoyed it so much and also the sequel, We Were Vagabonds. June Harman Betts is a wonderful author. I could not put the book down. Even though I read it from the library in Petersburg, West Virginia, I had to order my own copy for future generations. Katherine Vance, Amazon.com Reader Review.

Joshua Boger, Ph.D. Founder and CEO (former) Vertex PharmaceuticalsIn a time of profound change in which talent can increasingly work from anywhere and seek opportunities that maximize their impact, Priscilla lays out a compelling argument for re-imagining our notions of what an effective leader looks like in the 2020s." Breanna Zwart, President San Francisco Commission on the Status of Women"Through her own experiences and stories about leaders she admires, Priscilla Douglas provides helpful practical guidance on how to stay alert to opportunities, move quickly, and value people - all in the service of diversity, innovation, and a better post-Covid world."Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Harvard Business School Professor and author of Think Outside the Building: How Advanced Leaders Can Change the World One Smart Innovation at a Time.A new era of leadership is on the horizon.

Bonita C. Stewart, Vice President, Global Partnerships, Google and co-author, A Blessing: Women of Color Teaming Up to Lead, Empower and Thrive.ABOUT: "Woke" leaders are the stewards of an 'all in' equity economy; they are the sentinels for change. They live at the nexus of consciousness and compassion; and, in this book--Woke Leadership: Profits, Prophets & Purpose--I describe the experiences that create these leadership traits and I profile "woke" leaders and followers in action. Woke leadership is a continuum of noticing, appreciating, internalizing, and acting. They lead with purpose and compassion. This is not a how-to book, but a guide to the most effective, inspiring leadership I have had the privilege of witnessing in my 30+ years coaching and consulting in the C-suite.
