My Father's Dream of an Olympic Trampoline Reviews


Flash back to 1926, when a much younger George discovered his skill as a tumbler. He was the star of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, known as a gifted young gymnast and diver. Local newspapers dubbed him "one of the best fancy divers in the state," but it wasn't enough. George eventually introduced the world to something even more spectacular: the trampoline. My Father's Dream of an Olympic Trampoline is the first-hand account of George Nissen's path to immortality, written by his loving, devoted daughter, Dagmar. Not only was George's invention fun, but it became a health craze, incorporating strength, stamina, balance, coordination, and rhythm. George became a worldwide ambassador of "bouncing." Plus, it couldn't be denied: no one felt depressed while jumping on a trampoline! George was not afraid to step outside the box and take chances. He was an inventor with over a hundred patents, but he was also a dedicated husband, father, and family man. In 2000, he saw his dream become a reality when competitive trampolining was announced as an Olympic event. His story is intended to entertain and inspire as George Nissen lives on thanks to an invention that has brought smiles to the faces of the world.

Financial Founding Fathers Reviews


But the American Revolution was about far more than freedom and liberty. It was about economics as well. 

Robert E. Wright and David J. Cowen here chronicle how a different group of founding fathers forged the wealth and institutions necessary to transform the American colonies from a diffuse alliance of contending business interests into one cohesive economic superpower. From Alexander Hamilton to Andrew Jackson, the authors focus on the lives of nine Americans in particular—some famous, some unknown, others misunderstood, but all among our nation’s financial founding fathers. Such men were instrumental in creating and nurturing a financial system that drove economic growth in the nascent United States because they were quick to realize that wealth was as crucial as the Constitution in securing the blessings of liberty and promoting the general welfare. The astonishing economic development made possible by our financial founding fathers was indispensable to the preservation of national unity and of support for a government that was then still a profoundly radical and delicate political experiment.  

Grand in scope and vision, Financial Founding Fathers is an entertaining and inspiring history of the men who made America rich and steered her toward greatness.
