Embarking on a new business venture can be a daunting and unpredictable journey, much like rolling the dice in a game of chance. In 1967, two bold young men, Les Marino and Kenny Anderson, fearlessly stepped into the world of Heavy Construction, boldly declaring that they would one day become the largest contracting firm in the world. Oblivious to the challenges that lay ahead, they hung their shingle on the door of a modest one-room office in Cambridge, Massachusetts, unaware that their audacious prediction might actually come true in the not-too-distant future.

This book takes you on a captivating journey, detailing the trials, tribulations, and triumphs that shaped their remarkable story. Join them on this thrilling ride, but be sure to fasten your seatbelt securely, as the road ahead is filled with unexpected twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Evelyn Prebensen Harrison was born the daughter of a Norwegian diplomat. She and her family survived five years of German occupation in Norway during WWII, after which her father was appointed ambassador to England (for 12 years) and later to Italy. Life in these embassies gave Evelyn the unique opportunity to meet and get to know royalty, like Queen Elizabeth of England, King Haakon, King Olav and King Harald of Norway, as well as many political leaders such as Winston Churchill. Her life-threatening circulatory issues took her around the globe in search of cures. During her travels, she often stayed in palaces and country houses where friends and famous personalities gifted her with charms for her cherished bracelet. Each charm tells a story of the loyal friends and family that carried her through her chronic illness. See how she not only endured but triumphed! Thanks to the warm climate and proximity to family and friends, she continues to live in South Florida. Having survived more than ninety years, she still considers hers to be "A Charmed Life".
