James Allison
Among the engineers fueling the rapid rise of the automotive industry at the dawn of the 20th century was James Allison, a fountain pen maker who joined with Carl G. Fisher in 1904 to found Prest-O-Lite, an early manufacturer of the power source for automotive headlights. This biography tracks Allison's involvement in the Indianapolis 500, which he cofounded with Fisher and two others, as well as his machine shop's construction of the Liberty engine, the first mass-produced aircraft engine, and also the V1710, the workhorse of World War II military aircraft. Through his unique ingenuity and perseverance, Allison created a legacy that still resonates today at the Indianapolis 500, Rolls-Royce, and Allison Transmission.

This is a novel about a boy named Robert Fry who barged into Joshua Buckly's life uninvited. He just kept bugging him until Joshua let him follow him home. Since day one, this kid thought he could change everything with a can-do attitude and a smile on his face. Joshua didn't know where he came from or how he ended up in his town, but he's thankful he did. Joshua's parents were divorced, his mother was a drunk, and his brother just came around when he wasn't angry at the world. The town always seemed to have minor problems. He thought things were never going to change. Soon enough, this boy did miracles that Joshua couldn't believe anyone could do. Day after day, things happened but nobody had faith in Robert until he did the impossible. He was the town prodigy, changed the lives of many people, and even brought romance into Joshua's life. No one thought that it was possible, least of all, Joshua Buckly. This is his story.
