John Constance at Intermountain Book has scored quite a coup. Dave Thomas of Wendy's fame is coming to Salt Lake City to sign copies of his new book, and the Christian bookstore has an exclusive engagement.
Somebody somewhere has connections.In this case, Constance has connections with Zondervan Publishing, the Christian publisher bringing out "Well Done! The Common Guy's Guide to Everyday Success."
On Wednesday, Oct. 19, from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., Thomas will be on hand at Intermountain Book, 880 E. 2100 South, to sign copies of his book and chat with the public. Displays and trappings are being assembled as we speak.
Being billed as a "recipe for achievement," "Well Done!" tells about the people Thomas has met on his way up the corporate ladder.
"Throughout my life, people have taught me about values, hard work, honesty and integrity," says Thomas. "I wanted to write a book about everyday people who do the right things."
The book is full of cheery anecdotes and a shot-from-hip philosophy of life that has made Thomas a popular speaker and spokesman.
"Most books on success tell you that you have arrived when you cross the finish line first," writes Thomas. "I believe that really successful people are just as happy with being in the back seat."
The Salt Lake stop is part of a book tour that will swing the author through 25 cities. For information call the bookstore at 486-4965.
