Review
"Although Kyne's tale of business smarts has been around for some time, it doesn't feel dated. ... The 82-year-old story gets some slight spiffing up by business book writer Axelrod, and the afterword is especially helpful in pinpointing Kyne's main ideas." - Publishers Weekly
"The Go-Getter is a great book for motivating employees to take initiative and make decisions without constantly asking for management assent. ... What a revelation!" - Mark Hansen, The American Society of Safety Engineers
"Earle M. Jorgensen, who built one of the nation's largest steel distribution companies and helped persuade Ronald Reagan to go into politics ... kept stacks of a book called The Go-Getter: A Story That Tells You How to Be One [in his desk] and gave away signed copies to visitors." - The New York Times
About the Author
Peter B. Kyne (1880-1957) was an American novelist who wrote between 1904 and 1940. Many of his works were adapted into screenplays starting in the silent era, particularly his first novel, The Three Godfathers, which was published in 1913 and proved to be a huge success. He is credited in 110 films between 1914 and 1952. When still under 18, he lied about his age and enlisted in Company L, 14th U.S. Infantry, which served in the Philippines from 1898-1899. The Spanish-American War and the following insurrection of General Emilio Aguinaldo provided background for many of Kyne's later stories. During World War I, he served as a captain in Battery A of the 144th field Artillery, known as the California Grizzlies. He was born and died in San Francisco, California.
