Book Review: JUNGLE WARFARE: A BASIC FIELD MANUAL FROM CHRISTIANS IN SALES

JUNGLE WARFARE: A BASIC FIELD MANUAL FROM CHRISTIANS IN SALES is targeted toward people employed in sales, which grew out of ideas the author found from reading his grandfather's field manual from his days in the military. He found many parallels between working in sales and jungle warfare that are compelling and clever. The book is divided by daily segments into short reads that include a military concept, a passage of scripture, a prayer and an application question with space to journal. The author discusses practical topics, such as, ethics, sales strategies, moral compromise, dealing with competitors, failure, and balancing work with life. This book is a keeper for those who desire to maintain an active spiritual lifestyle while living and working in the "real world" of business. I found this to be a book that will never make the NY Times bestseller list; however, it is a motivational work that is worth reading. Give it a go!
