Have you ever wondered how a nation feeding a starving population during the Great Depression could twenty years later be approaching the greatest growth period in history? This book could be the story of you, your parents, or grandparents who were on the cutting edge of technological changes that blessed our nation with an unparalleled period of prosperity. From this base, millions of the world's people were rescued from the desolation of World War II into the prosperous world initiated from America. In this book you will read how those in the most blessed generation were on the cutting edge of: - Countering the Cold War threat of the Soviet Union - Developing history's most productive economy - Facing the economic competition with China - Exploring the Divine Revelations making America a Shining City upon a Hill - Warning a divided nation to threat of a new gathering storm John Whitmore Jenkins has spent the last fifty-nine years in business on the cutting edge of the most dramatic changes in our history. After graduating with an engineering degree from Texas A & M University, he served as a pilot in the U.S. Air Force with the Strategic Air Command, America's first line of defense during the Cold War against Soviet ambitions. He received his MBA from the Harvard Business School and joined International Business Machines just as the company introduced computers into the world of business. He spent the last thirty years in an industry entangled with China's rise as a major challenger to America's leadership in the free world. ALSO, BY JOHN WHITMORE JENKINS From The Hornet's Nest to the Day the Wall Came Down A Divided America and the Gathering Storm: Looking Through a Glass Darkly coming later in 2022.
