ABOUT THE BOOKAcademic literature has historically provided reasons why African-American entrepreneurs failed in business.

This book is a must read for nascent and novice entrepreneurs, entrepreneurs working to overcoming or avoid business obstacles, researchers interested in contributing more solutions in the entrepreneurial arena.
The literature review, data processing and analysis, and emerging themes will infuse the reader with key business considerations, new ideas, and approaches to navigate the inherent business pitfalls thereby increase your business success.
