Just As I Am: The Autobiography of Billy Graham Apr 1, 1999  HaperCollins Publishers    784 pages

“the man who has preached to more people than any human being who has ever lived” Time Magazine. In five decades Graham has led his ministry around the globe, speaking in person to more than 200 million people.  Billy Graham shares how he came from ordinary beginnings to have an extraordinary life of prestige and influence — all derived from his unshakable belief in Christ. Graham says, “As I look back over the years…my deepest feeling is one of overwhelming gratitude. I cannot take credit for whatever God has chosen to accomplish through us; only God deserves the Glory….”. His honesty in describing the toll that his travels placed on his family and his ready willingness to credit the many who added to his journey make this book a heartwarming and memorable reflection.

Capitalist Nigger: The Road to Success: A Spider Web Doctrine (Timbuktu Publishers, September 17, 2000  ISBN 1-86842-270-4 by Chika Onyeani Ph.D

Presents a logical argument that Blacks must mimic Asian People and adopt what  he calls a “spider-web doctrine” economic mentality. According to Onyeani, by adopting this economic concept Blacks will be able to attract wealth to their communities, and trap it there as a spider traps flies. And shun unending whining and victim-mentality.
