Walmart Inside Out: From Stockboy to Stockholder

When youre the largest and most successful company in the world youve got a big target on your back. Critics hate it. Shoppers love it. Is Walmart the evil empire or low-price savior? Theres never been a book as uniquely positioned to answer that question. Until now. Author Ron Loveless was there from the tart. Actually before the start. Born to a welfare-supported family in Hiwassee Arkansas (population 98) Ron and Walmart are inextricably joined at the hip. His mother cleaned house for the man everyone called Mr. Sam long before the first Walmart opened its doors.Chronicling Rons rise from stock boy to senior vice president (or in Rons words from outhouse to penthouse) Walmart Inside Out gives readers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the corporate giant from a uniquely-balanced perspective. By turns enlightening entertaining and endearing Walmart Inside Out is written in an amiable down-home style that feels like youre sitting on the authors porch sharing stories and a cool drink on a gentle Arkansas night.
