Walmart Inside Out: From Stockboy to Stockholder
"What a great read!!! When I'm not reading scripts, budgets or production reports during my 50 plus years as a film and television producer, I've loved reading business books. I have an insatiable yearning to know what makes people and businesses succeed.  I have never enjoyed a book as much as Ron Loveless' WALMART INSIDE OUT. His extraordinarily personal overview of retailing, the genius of Sam Walton and the story of the building of the most successful retailer in the world, stems from his unique perspective of "stock boy to stockholder".  I would heartily recommend this book to anyone who wants to do business with Walmart or for those who just want a funny, factual, fabulously enjoyable and touching read."  -- S. Bryan Hickox, Seven-time Emmy winning producer, director, and writer"My love for reading is my excuse for being a "book skimmer". With the exception of ATLAS SHRUGGED, "WALMART INSIDE OUT" is the first book I've read `word for word' over the past thirty years.  Ron Loveless made me feel like I was actually experiencing what he saw, felt and lived as he rose from the boy caught stealing at Sam's pre-Walmart store to the young man Sam Walton asked to start his Sam's Club Division. If you enjoy a good laugh...you will roar.  If you are unafraid to cry.....bring tissues.  And if you like movies like `It's a Wonderful Life'....get ready for a story that will warm your heart and remind you of the things you like best about the `American Dream'.  And if you like it `warts and all'.....you will hear from a fellow sinner who understands that life is a series of defeats and victories and, in the end, we all just want to leave our little corner of the world a little better than we found it.  Ron, you turned yourself inside out for those blessed enough to experience your corner and for that I am eternally grateful."    -- Ed Watkins, Founder, Graduate America Priority 1 and President, WinningEndeavors.com
