  • Flying for Peanuts : Tough Deals, Steep Bargains, and Revolution in the Skies
    Flying for Peanuts : Tough Deals, Steep Bargains, and Revolution in the Skies

    Lessons in business and life from the executive who helped shape the modern airline industry Frank Lorenzo is the epitome of the American dream.A first-generation American and entrepreneur, Lorenzo started an airline advisory business in his mid-twenties based on little more than bravado and ultimately rose to control the largest fleet of airplanes in the free world.Flying for Peanuts recounts how Lorenzo grew his empire from nothing and helped shape the airline industry as we know it. Flying for Peanuts explains how the son of Spanish immigrants put himself through Columbia College by driving a Coca-Cola truck and then grew the fledgling advisory into ownership of Texas International Airlines.At TIA, he fought through the industry’s transformation, in part by introducing the new, low-cost model for fares that are a major part of the industry today.From there, through a series of shrewd moves and a hostile takeover, Lorenzo became CEO of Continental Airlines, a large loss-making west coast airline at the time. This airline business memoir gives a play-by-play of the high-stakes negotiations that got Lorenzo there, including faceoffs with Carl Icahn and a chapter devoted to selling the Eastern Airlines Shuttle to Donald Trump, soon to become the doomed Trump Shuttle.It details Lorenzo’s competition with upstarts like Southwest Airlines and the clashes with unions that led Fortune’s to name him one of “America’s toughest bosses,” along with accolades from his employees.Along the way, Lorenzo highlights the strategies and tactics that propelled his growth. Flying for Peanuts is a compelling read for anyone interested in the American airline industry and anyone wanting to apply a trailblazing executive’s lessons for their own career success.

  • The Fairy Bargains of Prospect Hill
    The Fairy Bargains of Prospect Hill

    "A warm-hearted yet fierce fairy tale."?H. G. ParryThere is no magic on Prospect Hill-or anywhere else, for that matter.But just on the other side of the veil is the world of the Fae.Generations ago, the first farmers on Prospect Hill learned to bargain small trades to make their lives a little easier-a bit of glass to find something lost, a cup of milk for better layers in the chicken coop. Much of that old wisdom was lost as the riverboats gave way to the rail lines and the farmers took work at mills and factories.Alaine Fairborn's family, however, was always superstitious, and she still hums the rhymes to find a lost shoe and to ensure dry weather on her sister's wedding day. When Delphine confides her new husband is not the man she thought he was, Alaine will stop at nothing to help her sister escape him.Small bargains buy them time, but a major one is needed.Yet, the price for true freedom may be more than they're willing to pay. Praise for The Fairy Bargains of Prospect Hill:"Brimming with folk magic and delightfully sinister hidden worlds.Truly enchanting."?Leslye Penelope"A beautifully written tale of feminine power, sisterly devotion, and magic as old as the hills themselves."?Louisa MorganFor more from Rowenna Miller, check out:The Unraveled KingdomTornFrayRule
