Sage ... Pragmatic ... Enduring Buck Autrey doesn't believe in giving up. Nor does the word "failure" enter his vocabulary. That kind of thinking turned a nearly bankrupt business into one of the largest and most respected electrical contracting companies in America today. Since 1966, Buck has navigated Miller Electric through major recessions, feisty unions, stiff competition, and a fast changing industry. As the electrical industry's stabilizing force during a Justice Department investigation, he literally changed the way the industry does business. No small accomplishment for one starting out as an employee in a skating rink. What are the ingredients of this man's success? Trust, commitment, integrity, hard work. These, along with Buck's genuine care for others and a deep knowledge of the business, are his legacy ... universal ingredients for success. One might add he also had a lot of fun along the way.

“A story of surviving and thriving with passion, compassion, wit, and style.”—Maya Angelou “In America, we have a tradition of black writers whose autobiographies and memoirs come to define an era. . . . Buck may be this generation’s story.”—NPR A coming-of-age story about navigating the wilds of urban America and the shrapnel of a self-destructing family, Buck shares the story of a generation through one original and riveting voice. MK Asante was born in Zimbabwe to American parents: his mother a dancer, his father a revered professor. But as a teenager, MK was alone on the streets of North Philadelphia, swept up in a world of drugs, sex, and violence. MK’s memoir is an unforgettable tale of how one precocious, confused kid educated himself through gangs, rap, mystic cults, ghetto philosophy, and, eventually, books. It is an inspiring tribute to the power of literature to heal and redeem us.
