I loved hearing the story of the founding of Nike as told by Phil Knight, the man behind it all. He's very candid about their triumphs and missteps. (0 more)
The memoir ends right as the company is taking off and gaining traction, perhaps leaving the door open for a follow-up? (0 more)
Interesting look at the beginnings of Nike

Life is hard for Clyde, the horse of a brave knight. But when the time comes, will he show true courage? This is a predictable but extremely fun picture book that kids and their parents will enjoy.

"So many Batman stories and graphic novels to choose from, but I think this ranks number one — with Miller’s “The Dark Knight Returns” a close second. To civilians (non-comics fans), I describe this work as a great urban crime drama that just happens to have Batman in it. With a little Dostoyevsky mixed in — really."
