The Go-Getter

Résumé du livre

Peter B. Kyne was a prolific author and businessman who wrote in the first half of the twentieth century. His other stories include The Three Godfathers, The Long Chance, and the Cappy Ricks series, which continues the story of one of the main characters from The Go-Getter.

Under Mr. Skinner's mentorship, Mr. Peck excelled in selling lumber across several states, earning recognition from both Skinner and Cappy Ricks. To test Peck’s capabilities before a potential promotion, Cappy assigned him the task of retrieving a blue vase from a specific shop by a strict deadline. Despite numerous obstacles, including a closed shop, uncooperative individuals, and financial constraints, Peck’s determination never wavered. He pawned his diamond ring, chartered a private plane, and intercepted Cappy’s train to deliver the vase, albeit late. Impressed by Peck’s persistence, Cappy promoted him to manage the company’s Shanghai operations. Peck’s journey reflects the power of resilience and resourcefulness, proving that with unwavering commitment, even the most insurmountable challenges can be conquered.
