In 'Dick Merriwell Abroad; Or, The Ban of the Terrible Ten' by Burt L. Standish, readers are taken on a thrilling adventure as Dick Merriwell and his friends find themselves facing the mysterious Terrible Ten in foreign lands. The book is written in a fast-paced and dynamic style, keeping readers on the edge of their seats as the characters navigate danger and intrigue. Set in the context of the early 20th century, the novel provides a glimpse into the adventurous spirit of the time, with its focus on friendship, honor, and courage. Burt L. Standish, a pseudonym for the prolific author Gilbert Patten, drew on his own experiences and imagination to create the beloved character of Dick Merriwell. Standish's background as a journalist and writer for popular series like the 'Frank Merriwell' stories adds depth and authenticity to his writing, making 'Dick Merriwell Abroad' a compelling read for fans of adventure and mystery. I highly recommend 'Dick Merriwell Abroad; Or, The Ban of the Terrible Ten' to readers who enjoy classic adventure tales with a hint of mystery and suspense. Standish's skillful storytelling and memorable characters make this book a timeless gem that will captivate audiences of all ages.
The U.S. economy made impressive gains in the 20th century, but this progress makes it easy to forget a harsh reality: Americans were the victims of disastrous government policies that cost trillions of dollars in wasted resources, created mass unemployment, and kept millions of people in poverty who otherwise would have participated in the nation's growing prosperity. A complete dissection of the 10 most egregious economic blunders of the past century, this work provides the key lessons to help in avoiding such policy mistakes in the future. The Terrible 10 notes that, unlike the private sector, when the governance of the federal government fails, the role and scope of government is usually increased and that politicians from both parties tend to favor short-run benefits for friends while imposing costs on current and later generations. With issues and blame divided equally among Democrats and Republicans, this work stands as a highly readable history of how government economic blunders affect everyone.

While most might imagine David Morgan AO to have a conservative economic background, the truth is far more exotic. Prior to becoming the CEO of a global top-20 bank, he overcame the scars of his father’s bankruptcy, starred alongside Olivia Newton-John as a child actor, turned down a spot at Richmond Football Club, survived a stand-off with an African dictator, and served in the Treasury of the Hawke-Keating government as it liberalised Australia’s economy.
 
After a PhD at the London School of Economics, Morgan worked at the International Monetary Fund in Washington, uncovering eye-watering corruption on foreign postings, until Canberra pulled him home. As a colleague and confidant of Paul Keating, Morgan had a central role in an audacious period of financial deregulation, tax reform and budget consolidation.
 
In 1989 Morgan jumped the public-private fence to join Westpac, where he was immediately branded an ‘academic socialist’ outsider.  Yet his boundless ambition, and his instinct to balance what is right for business and what is simply the right thing to do, saw him appointed CEO in 1999, a role he held until 2008.
 
Oliver Brown’s biography of one of Australia’s key financial figures includes rare interviews with former prime minister Paul Keating, Wall Street titans Jamie Dimon and James Gorman, Reserve Bank governors Bernie Fraser and Ian MacFarlane, Westpac CEOs Bob Joss and Gail Kelly, and secretaries of the Treasury Ken Henry, Ted Evans and Martin Parkinson.
