I read the book as a long-ago Peace Corps Volunteer curious about what Mr. Chavis learned and did as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Peru that would test and teach him and fire him up to write an inspirational guide that others might use in creating and carrying out a business or project idea. This book is not a school-like entrepreneur's business guide but is more about one's inner and outer approach to goals and problem-solving. In this 157-page book, he distills the core story itself into 33 pages, each one prefaced by page with a big fat chapter number followed by a left-hand page displaying a sign-sized quote from others that reinforces his point. Moves right along, bam, bam. It is an easy read and reference in which one follows Mr. Chavis's ups and downs and what he learned in a tricky environment and in himself. He puts it out passionately, and plain and simple. Hap Capwood, Author, The Miler
