Scratch Beginnings: Me, $25, and the Search for the American Dream

De (autor): Adam W. Shepard

Shepard offers a compelling and inspiring work of investigative journalism in which the author, in a sort of anti-"Nickel and Dimed" experiment, sets out to see if someone who starts with nothing can still achieve the American Dream.

"DON'T believe the naysayers. The American Dream--the fable that says if you work hard and follow the rules, you'll make it--is alive and well."
--New York Post

Adam W. Shepard's Scratch Beginnings is the fascinating and eye-opening account of the grand social experiment the author undertook in response to Barbara Ehrenreich's Nickel and Dimed. Subtitled "Me, $25, and the Search for the American Dream," Scratch Beginnings chronicles Shepard's successful efforts to raise himself up from self-imposed rock bottom in one year's time--a personal odyssey that is sure to inspire anyone who reads about it, instilling new faith in the solid principles on which our democracy was built.
