This is a book of four speeches given by Patrick Ross during his career as Chairman and CEO of the Uniroyal Goodrich Tire Company and as President of B.F. Goodrich. The speeches from the mid to late 1970s are about an ever expanding federal government and the loss of personal liberties and truth. Each speech is accompanied by an article from an independent author. They will comment on the speech in a way that confirms that Mr. Ross's vision more than 30 years ago is even more relevant today. They will take the theme of his speech and put it into the context of today's world.
