In this uniquely comprehensive and compelling account, Marty Parkes, once head of the communications department at Maryville University, describes the trailblazing path that the University, under the visionary leadership of Dr. Mark Lombardi and his dynamic team of staff and faculty, took to emerge as one of the top universities in the country, gaining the Apple Distinguished School award and being recognized by U.S. News & World Report.
