I thoroughly enjoyed your book – what an interesting and powerful read. I honestly didn’t know what to expect, but I started it over the weekend and couldn’t put it down. What an incredible story – and amazing strength and perseverance you and your entire team displayed. Hats off to you!!

I started reading “Pushing Water Uphill with A Rake” and couldn’t put it down. Matter of fact it is the first and only book I have ever read in one sitting nonstop all the way through. All I can say is Wow, Wow & Wow. Thank you for sharing some of your life with me and others.

What a fascinating story it is! It really held my attention. I don’t know of anyone who went from such a meteoric rise to such a crash in such a short time. And you are still sane! I can certainly see why you thought this story needed to be told (and re-told!) as it is at once cautionary, and yet, somehow, inspiring. Thank you again for this amazing insight into your life.

What a book! Steve is one of the most helpfiul and insightful business writers I have ever met. His marquis book, Pushing Water Uphill With a Rake, is a MUST READ for business people and entrepreneurs. Steve is also an expert business advisor and speaker.

Loved it! If you are looking for an uplifting, get-on-with-life, response to the worst that life can dish up, then this book is it!!

| Loved the book. I had trouble putting the book down once I got started. I laughed, cried and felt a strong empathy for Steve as he went through the fun, exhiliaration and the "crash and burn" of his business. In the business world this can so easily happen, but Steve kept his sense of humor and pulled himself out by his bootstraps and emerged a stronger person.

| Steve, I just finished your book and found it fascinating and totally inspiring. I have such respect for you and how you handled the "ups" as well as the "downs". I hope your book achieves the success that it deserves. Best of luck to you, I hope there are many "ups" in your future.

| You gave an outstanding speech to our group so I bought your book. It is even more powerful. Every business person should have a copy.

What a great read, what a wild ride you and your partners had, and what an amazing roller coaster of highs and lows you experienced. I was amazed at your frank and to the point disclosures in chapters 22 and 23 which really hit home for me. I had my wife read chapter 22 "The Worthless Knight in Rusted Armor", (as you really put it on the line here) because it really put into words what I always wanted to say to her after I lost my business. Now she knows how I felt.
For all entrepreneurs, Thank You!
