But all entrepreneurs need a personal framework to follow. With hard-won insight, humor, and an insider's knowledge of the entrepreneurial space, Chop Dawg founder/CEO Joshua H. Davidson dispels the myths and false promises that entrepreneurs are often too keen to believe in when starting out, and lays out a practical framework for lasting success.

City Girl, Country Girl brings together the stories of women who have left lives in the city or other countries to build new futures in places where knowing how to milk a cow or drive a tractor stands them in far better stead than an ability to negotiate rush-hour traffic or find a good cappuccino.

Known well as the Protestant preceptor of Germany, he was Martin Luther's lifelong friend, colleague, teacher of Greek, and fellow reformer. Upon arriving at Wittenberg, Melanchthon was a theologian neither by trade nor by training. He was a classically trained expert in classical languages, neo-Latin poet, textbook author, Greek scholar, humanist, and above all, an educator
