About this title

Synopsis

Successful corporations such as FedEx, Domino's Pizza, and IBM conduct theirbusinesses according to certain principles that guarantee their success. Veterancorporate leader Ray Capp shows how to improve your personal life when you meanbusiness about yourself by applying such principles as:

All your worlds are stages. Know your roles.
Do the right thing, and you'll do the right things.
Do what others value and they will value you.
Planning to do better is what you better plan to do.
Water your crops and parch your weeds.
The club you need is already in the bag.
If you just stick your toe in the water, you'll miss the boat.
You might have luck, but you must have pluck.
If you're barking up the wrong tree, more yelp won't help.

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
