Vol. 9, Issue 1 Dave's Way A New Approach to Old-Fashioned Success By: R. David Thomas 256 pp. G.P. Putnam's Sons 1991 Review by: Lydia Morris Brown

The engaging story of how Dave Thomas used old-fashioned American values to turn a childhood dream into a $3 billion business. Thomas, the founder of Wendy’s International, shares his experience and know-how in down-to-earth language and with lively folk humor. Dave’s Way shows that Dave Thomas is living proof that free enterprise gives everyone, regardless of sex, origin, creed, or color, the chance to be successful. It is a matter of ridding oneself of the "I-don’t-think-I-can" attitude and believing in "I know I can." Opportunity never knocked-his luck was just in knowing that opportunities existed.
