Publisher's Synopsis
No! can crush or energize your dreams. As a young boy, a civic leader and a businessman, Dink NeSmith never let "no" crush his ambition. Time and time again, others have said, "You are wasting your time. You can't do that." This book is a collection of stories-from childhood to the 21st century-in which he defied those odds. He has a legacy of inspiring others to embrace those seemingly impossible tasks, too. He vows that teamwork really works. Determination has been a trademark of his first 75 years. "Only words live forever," insisted one of his mentors. That's why Dink wrote Thank you for telling me NO! Rick Bragg, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist and author says, "Dink writes about the past with such heart and color, it makes you wish for a time machine."
