Appalachian Kid

"Appalachian Kid is a moving, candid, humorous and uplifting book that is, ultimately, about what it really means to be a good person. And it's a ripping good read. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll be inspired."
- Jacqui Spence, Partner & Co-founder, Asset Economics, Inc. "John's writing about his journey is not only personal, gritty, revealing, and uncompromising but encompasses many trials of each of our own journeys, much of which we struggle to forget..."
- John A. "Sandy" Pidgeon, D.Ed.Min, LCDR USN SEAL (ret) "It has often been said that everyone has a book inside him or her just waiting to get out. Well, this extraordinary journey of John Boyle takes readers on a ride from Appalachia to the extraordinary Kiski School to Harvard Business School. And it truly is an adventure in which a person can appreciate the struggles, challenges, and joys John has endured. I have never read anything quite like it and hope others will enjoy the life-affirming anecdotes shared in these pages."
