Download or read book Big Trouble written by J. Anthony Lukas and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-07-17 with total page 884 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as "toweringly important" (Baltimore Sun), "a work of scrupulous and significant reportage" (E. L. Doctorow), and "an unforgettable historical drama" (Chicago Sun-Times), Big Trouble brings to life the astonishing case that ultimately engaged President Theodore Roosevelt, Supreme Court justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, and the politics and passions of an entire nation at century's turn. After Idaho's former governor is blown up by a bomb at his garden gate at Christmastime 1905, America's most celebrated detective, Pinkerton James McParland, takes over the investigation. His daringly executed plan to kidnap the radical union leader "Big Bill" Haywood from Colorado to stand trial in Idaho sets the stage for a memorable courtroom confrontation between the flamboyant prosecutor, progressive senator William Borah, and the young defender of the dispossessed, Clarence Darrow. Big Trouble captures the tumultuous first decade of the twentieth century, when capital and labor, particularly in the raw, acquisitive West, were pitted against each other in something close to class war. Lukas paints a vivid portrait of a time and place in which actress Ethel Barrymore, baseball phenom Walter Johnson, and editor William Allen White jostled with railroad magnate E. H. Harriman, socialist Eugene V. Debs, gunslinger Charlie Siringo, and Operative 21, the intrepid Pinkerton agent who infiltrated Darrow's defense team. This is a grand narrative of the United States as it charged, full of hope and trepidation, into the twentieth century.

Book excerpt: One of the most respected marketing gurus in the world shows why some of today's biggest brands are having trouble and how to avoid repeating their mistakes. It wasn't long ago that Levi-Strauss, Xerox, Crest, AT&T, Firestone, and Digital Equipment dominated their respective markets. What happened to undermine their standings and of those of other superbrands? Are their declines simply the inevitable consequence of change and the birth of new competition? In this important predecessor to the classic Differentiate or Die, "the king of positioning," Jack Trout answers that question with a resounding "No!" Writing in his signature, straight-from-the-hip style he reveals the disastrous marketing and strategy blunders that led to the dissolution of the most recognized superbrands. He clearly shows how those mistakes could have been avoided. With the help of in-depth case studies chronicling the events leading up to the falls from grace of Sears, Miller Brewing, Xerox, Crest, Burger King, and other past market leaders, he identifies the ten most common mistakes that big brands make, and he develops a set of expert guidelines for marketing managers and executives on how to build, protect, manage, and expand their companies' brands and avoid brand-killing blunders.

Book excerpt: Join Pastor Allen Jackson as he reveals a biblical perspective on the startling events unfolding in our nation, and shows us how we can hold onto everlasting hope and flourish, even in the midst of the chaos. Christians today live in an unsettling reality that is defined by a steady cultural drift toward blatant immorality and disregard for the truth. The economic and social instability of the past couple of years--not to mention the fear and confusion brought on by the global pandemic--have only added to the atmosphere of uncertainty and anxiety. But Jackson has an urgent message of hope to share in Big Trouble Ahead: God's kingdom is unshakeable. If we take hold of the fundamental truths of the gospel and decipher the gathering storm clouds through the lens of Scripture, the church will be empowered to prevail. In Big Trouble Ahead, Jackson gives you the tools you need to: Be encouraged that nothing can separate you from God's love and his involvement in this generation Learn how to view current events and today's biggest controversies through the lens of a biblical perspective Be reminded of God's abiding concern for your life Whatever trials or challenges life may bring, Big Trouble Ahead is sure to bring you reassurance and renewed courage, rooted firmly in God's presence, goodness, and his message of unchanging hope in the gospel.

Not in cancel culture. Not in conflict or controversy. In Christ." --Dave Ramsey, bestselling author and radio host "Because Allen Jackson is one of the most insightful and dynamic pastors on the planet, when he speaks, I try to listen. True to his always Christ-centered message, Pastor Jackson reminds us that the 'big trouble ahead' should not rob believers of their hope and expectation." --Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas, 2008 presidential candidate, New York Times bestselling author, and host of popular weekly talk show Huckabee "Pastor Allen Jackson is an uncompromising voice for truth in a generation where those in authority haven't 'played it straight.' In Big Trouble Ahead, Jackson lays out current events through the lens of the Bible and offers a guide to help you wisely chart new territory." --Eric Metaxas, #1 New York Times bestselling author and host of the nationally syndicated Eric Metaxas Radio Show
