James Wallace

In this fascinating exposé, two investigative reporters trace the hugely successful career of Microsoft founder Bill Gates. Part entrepreneur, part enfant terrible, Gates has become the most powerful -- and feared -- player in the computer industry, and arguably the richest man in America. In Hard Drive, investigative reporters Wallace and Erickson follow Gates from his days as an unkempt thirteen-year-old computer hacker to his present-day status as a ruthless billionaire CEO. More than simply a "revenge of the nerds" story though, this is a balanced analysis of a business triumph, and a stunningly driven personality. The authors have spoken to everyone who knows anything about Bill Gates and Microsoft -- from childhood friends to employees and business rivals who reveal the heights, and limits, of his wizardry. From Gates's singular accomplishments to his equally extraordinary brattiness, arrogance, and hostility (the atmosphere is so intense at Microsoft that stressed-out programmers have been known to ease the tension of their eighty-hour workweeks by exploding homemade bombs), this is a uniquely revealing glimpse of the person who has emerged as the undisputed king of a notoriously brutal industry.

"Every tale lures you to the next, from the fanciful, to the historical, to the other worldly. Are they real or are they imagined? You'll wonder. I loved it . . . It stirs the imagination.Tales From The River reminded me of Marjorie Rawlings who wrote the Pulitzer-Prize-winning The Yearling. Marjorie's editor, Maxwell Perkins, suggested she write a book appealing to both young and old. Marjorie thought a moment and replied, 'You sit there at your desk and ask me to write a classic.' Which Marjorie did. [Tales From The River] is that kind of book."- Review published in the Commercial Dispatch (Columbus, MS)***Tales From The River is divided into four parts, with stories for all ages.Part One (children+): Become friends with elves, trolls, sproots, and a pocket mouse!Part Two (middle school+): Discover a magic wishing well . . . meet a special sparrow . . . learn the secret of the Last Leaf . . . eavesdrop on the CIA . . . sneak into an abandoned building at night . . . battle on the high seas . . . ride a fire-breathing dragon . . . survive an alien encounter . . . and dare to enter Dead Man’s Cave.Part Three (teens+): Fight in a foggy, dawn skirmish between Union and Confederate soldiers . . . befriend a mysterious old man and his forest creatures . . . join a SEAL team on a dangerous, highly-classified mission . . . and come face to face with ghosts (not all friendly).
