Paperback. Condición: Good. Jillian Johnson has devoted more than two decades of her life to a career in nursing while also being a single mother to her daughter, Marty. Now that Marty is all grown up and pursuing a medical career overseas, Jillian makes the monumental decision to leave her home state of Wisconsin for a new life in Los Angeles. Her true passion is to become a professional writer, and with her mind on that goal, she takes a job as a household helper for the mysterious and reclusive Mr. Romano. Shortly after arriving at his estate, Jillian is shocked to discover that her new employer is uniquely tied to her past. He was a huge, albeit unknowing, influence in her decision to attend medical school, the place where she engaged in an ill-fated romance with the man who would become her daughter's father. Having survived this and other heartbreaks, Jillian is ready to open her heart to love again. There are certainly new men in her life, but none more intriguing than her employer, Mr. Romano. The fact that he stays hidden from Jillian and only communicates with her via brief and sometimes brusque handwritten notes only adds to the intrigue. Is he trying to hide something? Jillian doesn't know, but she becomes determined to find out more about this mysterious man and see if she can help him emerge from his reclusive shell. It soon becomes apparent that she has her work cut out for her, and it will take every ounce of patience, and faith, to meet this challenge.…

Grooms lend Rozelle's flashbacks a startling visual impact. Grooms, C.A. (ilustrador). …

Paperback. Condición: Good. From a remote Italian village to the chaos of Ellis Island--one widow's bold leap into the unknown will define generations to come. That Was Enough is a sweeping immigrant saga inspired by the true journey of Francesco and Concetta Nardi, who leave behind their beloved Italy in pursuit of the American dream. With unwavering courage, deep faith, and fierce resilience, they set out to build a new life in an unfamiliar land. Set in the early 1900s, readers are first immersed in the rustic beauty and hardships of southern Italy, where young Concetta Andriarchi, recently widowed and raising a small child, receives a life-changing proposal from Francesco Nardi--a man she barely remembers. He asks her to join him in America. Torn between safety and uncertainty, Concetta makes the bold decision to leave everything she knows behind. What follows is a harrowing voyage and a jarring introduction to the chaos of Ellis Island, where foreign languages, unfamiliar faces, and the weight of uncertainty collide. Reunited with Francesco, the two marry and begin the relentless work of building a life from the ground up--navigating the challenges of survival, assimilation, and holding fast to their heritage. Through heartbreak and hope, That Was Enough tells the deeply human story of the immigrant experience--of what it takes to become American, and what must be left behind to do so. It is a tribute to the ordinary heroes whose quiet strength helped shape a nation.…

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. There have been many articles and even books written on what happened after General Motors closed its plant in Janesville, Wisconsin in 2008 after some 90 years of operation. Here, for the first time, former Wisconsin state senator--and Janesville native--Tim Cullen tells the inside story of how and why it happened, and what it means for the future not only of Janesville, but cities across America. Cullen, who co-chaired the governor's task force that tried to save the Janesville plant, provides a sweeping history of the plant from its boom years to the abyss, while noting the struggles African Americans and women faced in getting hired and treated fairly. Along the way he finds some heroes, including an early African American GM employee; a woman who insisted on gender equity in the plant; and Walter Reuther, the legendary labor leader. Perhaps no one is better qualified than Tim Cullen to tell this important story. Tim worked in the Janesville GM plant as a college student and he was there, decades on, when presidential candidate Barack Obama told a hopeful gathering of GM employees and other stakeholders he would do what he could to ensure its success. Less than a year later, the plant closed. In Disassembled, Tim Cullen reveals what happened.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. A nearly $19 trillion debt. A 74,608-page tax code. An increase in global temperatures. A broken Social Security system. These are just some of the problems plaguing our nation. While politicians are quick to offer lip service, they are slow -- or non-existent -- with solutions. Americans are frustrated with the lack of leadership as evidenced by Congress' 10 percent approval rating. Now is the time for simple, bold changes that will alter the direction of this nation. Drawing on more than three decades of business experience, John Burke applies his tested problems-and-solutions approach and independent thinking to tackle the complex problems that America faces. In 12 Simple Solutions to Save America, Burke proposes concrete solutions to fix these issues and challenges Americans to resist the status quo and change what elected officials are unwilling or unable to change. Americans have a civic duty to make the tough decisions that improve the lives of citizens over the long-term. It can be done, but it will not happen by accident.…
