The Go-Getter

First published in 1921, ‘The Go-Getter’ is a witty parable of perseverance and purpose that has proved itself to be a timeless classic, written by Peter B. Kyne, an American novelist. The novel tells the story of Bill Clegg, an enterprising young salesman, who is set on an apparently impossible task when his boss, a crusty old-timer named Cappy Riggs, decides to test his mettle. Charismatic and incredibly committed, Bill charmed his way into Riggs’s employment and is resolved to meet his boss’s expectations—no matter what may ensue. Along the way, Clegg develops and demonstrates the critical values of drive, determination, honesty, and integrity. Peter B. Kayne's inspiring story has lost none of its pertinence. By applying its ageless lessons, employees and entrepreneurs can learn to be in command of their careers and goals
