Steve Imbeau’s biography of Mayor Frank Willis is comprehensive and well-documented. It chronicles the various stages in the Mayor’s life— both professionally and politically—by recounting many of his more substantial accomplishments. But as the narrative unfolds, the reader quickly understands that this isn’t simply the story of a career structured around accomplishments. It involves a life spent nurturing, sustaining, and coalescing relationships. A great many of these projects materialized because Frank worked assiduously to cultivate personal friendships with the women and men who would make Florence and the Pee Dee successful. In that regard, Frank’s magnanimous personality and his unique ability to convey a unifying vision for the community are the central themes of this book. Steve Imbeau’s book captures the essence of those traits superbly.
FRED CARTER,

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - 'The life and times of Frank Willis mayor of Florence, SC from 1995 to 2008. Florence was at a crossroads of sorts. The Florence Civic Center fight was over and the local university, Francis Marion University was mature and starting to grow; international and national business were noticing Florence and starting to come to Florence. The community was changing. Mayor Frank seized the opportunity and arose to great success. Mayor Frank's opportunity: a change in the attitude of Florence about growth and development symbolized by the new Civic Center, funding potential from the new Drs. Bruce and Lee Foundation, the significant occurrence of concurring presidents of the Florence Darlington Technical College and the Francis Marion University, and a potent group of six supporters and advisors recruited into his kitchen cabinet. The book is not only local Florence history but also instruction for anybody yearning local leadership and achievement. You need not live in Florence nor South Carolina to appreciate this book, this political education and this history'. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781625862075
