Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Narrative of the Life and Adventures of Venture (1798) is an autobiography by Venture Smith. Written while Smith was living in freedom on his own farm in Connecticut, A Narrative of the Life and Adventures of Venture is recognized by scholars as a pioneering work of African American nonfiction and one of the earliest known slave narratives in American history. Born the son of Saugnm Furro, a prince of Dukandarra, Smith was captured as a boy and sold into slavery on the Gold Coast of Africa. Brought to Barbados by way of the Middle Passage, Smith was eventually sold to Robinson Mumford, a landowner from Rhode Island. Upon arrival in the British colony, Smith was put to work in the Mumford household, gaining the trust of his enslaver while enduring the abuses of Mumford’s young son. At 22, he married Meg, a fellow enslaved woman, and was soon swept up in an escape attempt with an Irish indentured servant. Betrayed at Montauk Point by the Irishman, Smith was forced to capture him and return to Rhode Island, where he was sold to Thomas Stanton in Connecticut. Separated from his wife and daughter, subjected to worse abuses than before, Smith sought to gain his freedom by any means necessary. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Venture Smith’s A Narrative of the Life and Adventures of Venture is a classic of African American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Download or read book Adventure Finance written by Aunnie Patton Power and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-28 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The venture capital model doesn’t work—at least not for 99% of startups and small businesses. In this 99% are a lot of companies with incredible potential: businesses headed by female founders and those from diverse racial backgrounds, organizations headquartered outside of venture capital hubs, and purpose-driven enterprises that are creating social and environmental impact alongside financial success. Counter to what the press-savvy venture capital world would have you believe, there are a lot of funding options out there for startups and small businesses. Adventure Finance is designed to help you understand some of these options, and walk you through real examples of how other founders and funders have put them to use. In simple, approachable language, the book breaks down the different types of funding options available from revenue-based financing to recoverable grants to redeemable equity to distributed ownership and more. Through a mix of storytelling and frameworks, based on a decade of research and experience in investing in early-stage companies, this book will give you the ability to determine how each of these structures can contribute to your own funding journey. The goal for this book is to shift the conversation about startup funding and help founders and funders widen the spectrum of “mainstream” investment options in order to make the venture financing world more inclusive and purpose-driven.

Download or read book The Adventures of Mr Brightside written by Ryan Jacobson and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine yourself staying in a luxurious penthouse suite with a panoramic view of Bangkok. Picture yourself sipping a glass of the finest champagne while dining on the 65th floor of the world class hotel while indulging on some of the most elegant dishes in the world at a two-Michelin star restaurant. Then, imagine the next morning, shoving your designer suit into a backpack, hiring a motorized rickshaw, and having them deliver you to your new home; a cramped, dorm room filled to the brim with strangers that are young enough to be your offspring. For lunch, you are enjoying a fried scorpion that you purchased from a food stand on the side of the road.This is exactly what Ryan Jacobson did for an entire year when he took a year off of his job as a middle school English and Geography teacher to pursue his passion for world travel. In the months prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Ryan decided to get the full experience of each destination he ventured by spending four days on a very stringent backpackers budget, staying at hostels, eating scorpions, crickets, or other street food, and spending relatively no money on entertainment or activities. The next four days he would travel on a moderate budget, staying at appropriately-priced hotels, eating at moderately-priced restaurants, and having an allotted budget for entertainment and activities. And the final four days in each country, he would spend on an all-out luxury budget; indulging on the best of what each destination had to offer. All to answer the question of who truly has the more fun, authentic experience when it comes to travel? Is it the backpacker crew that isn't afraid to get down and dirty with the locals or mingle with strangers that don't speak their language? Or is it the luxury travelers that spare no expense to get the full experience of what it means to travel like a rock star? Perhaps the moderate budget traveler has the best of both worlds and truly gets the most out of international travel? Regardless of the budget Ryan was traveling on, his adventures take him through unique journeys that will elicit both humor and horror, many of which at the same time. With Ryan's uncanny ability to find himself in peculiar situations, The Adventures of Mr. Brightside will concurrently leave you with a sense of immense wanderlust, as well as a substantial appreciation for reading this book from the comfort and safety of your own home.
