Everyman: foot Prince in the snow
In Everyman, Robert Prince gives a history of his trials and tribulations as he rose up in Boston's transit system from bus seat to board seat.
"...This is a story of how hard work, personal responsibility, and respect for yourself and others can help you be successful in your career. It is also a story of how that isn't the end of the story...you don't keep climbing the corporate ladder to the top and off into the sunset to your new job and live happily ever after in some cushy corner office. It is a story about the political/racial/personal struggle of being at the General Manager of the MBTA in the City of Boston. It is the story of how no matter how hard you try to compromise and do right by your client (in this case, the community), to not let politics dictate decisions, at the end of the day, people are not going to be satisfied. It is a story about how racism is alive and well in this country. Saying that, it is still an incredibly uplifting story....it's REAL story. Robert Prince is one amazing person that tells an amazing story. I think it would be a great book for ANY recent high school or college grad."
