Summary
Industrial bearings during the 1950s was a man’s world. Yet, in spite of the pushback (and while raising 10 children), Wendy McDonald succeeded in growing a single machine shop into a profitable family business with 60 locations worldwide. We told the story of how she did it.
Mrs. Mac. looooooves the book. It has been a long time since I’ve seen her as happy as she was when she saw it. She thinks it is simply gorgeous.
