Tales of the Revolution: True Stories of People who are Poking the Box and Making a Difference

This collection gathers true accounts from ordinary people who acted on their own initiative. Some of them changed the way they work, some reshaped their home lives, and others pushed themselves into situations that frightened them. Each account shows someone who went beyond what was expected in order to make a difference. Compiled to encourage readers to take their own first steps, these short profiles present a range of self-starters from different walks of life. The stories come from a much larger pool of submissions, so the selection offers a sample of the many ways people have chosen to act.
