ROOSTER: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF ROOSTER COGBURN
COGBURN, BRETT
Rooster is the non-fiction biography of Brett's gunfighting great-grandfather and his battle against the Hanging
Judge's U.S. Deputy Marshals. It has long been said by the uninformed that a real Rooster Cogburn never
existed beyond the confines of True Grit, but indeed he did. Fifteen years of research revealed a story unique
and exceptional in its own right. The book is filled with never before seen photographs, fresh Indian Territory
outlaw research, and an interesting look at the real man behind one of the most iconic Western characters ever
created in novel or film.

RWANDA INC.
CRISAFULLI, PATRICIA
Eighteen years after the genocide that made Rwanda international news, but left it all but abandoned by the
West, the country has achieved a miraculous turnaround. Rising out of the complete devastation of a failed state,
Rwanda has emerged on the world stage yet again—this time with a unique model for governance and
economic development under the leadership of its strong and decisive president, Paul Kagame. Here, Patricia
Crisafulli & Andrea Redmond look at Kagame’s leadership, his drive for excellence and execution that draws
comparisons to an American CEO and emphasizes the development of a sophisticated and competitive
workforce that leverages human capital. In Rwanda, the ultimate turnaround, strong and effective leadership has
made a measurable and meaningful difference. Rwanda’s progress offers an example for other developing
nations to lift themselves out of poverty without heavy reliance on foreign aid through decentralization,
accountability, self-determination, and self-sufficiency.
