Behind Success - "A Memoir from the School of Hard Knocks" is a novella recounting how the author's youth shaped him as a teacher, coach and administrator. As an urban high school principal, the author is driven to "affectionate nostalgia" after three conferences recall sorrows and triumphs of his early youth. Based on true experiences, the central theme focuses on his reminiscences living on the tough streets of New York City during the 1950's and 1960's, a life that was filled with dangers, excitement, temptations and lessons. The lessons became the blueprint for his problem-solving and decision making.
