Author Andrew Laties squeezes over 20 years of bookselling and business experience into 320 pages. His entertaining yet highly informative method of storytelling will appeal to those with the entrepreneurial spirit.
Rebel Bookseller also takes a macroscopic look at American life: What does the average man or woman face if he or she strives to live the American dream? What will neighborhoods and our lives look like in the future, as corporations merge? How have individuality, our voices, and our freedom been affected by corporate expansion? Rebel Bookseller raises many questions about where our culture is now and where it is headed.
