A salesman's life in his own words... Whether handling gangsters with an eye on a cut of his business, bribing Russian cops with honey pot favors, lobbying Mexico's president or trading gunfire with the Russian mob, it was all in a day's work for Gayle Hickok, master salesman. His adventures selling everything from cars to resorts worldwide was varied and demanding but never dull. Why read a great salesman's memoir if you don't plan on being a salesman? Because life is sales. Housewives sell kids on taking out the trash, doctors sell patients on treatment, teachers sell students on learning, wooers sell wooed on love—-everywhere and in everything—-sales has its part. Why not learn from a pro?
