About the book
"FAMILY BUSINESS - THE SPIRIT OF AN AMERICAN ENTREPRENEUR... MARK NELSEN"  was written to help other people deal with some of the things that usually get in the way of success. There were many times that Mark Nelsen could have made excuses to fail, but instead he pushed forward towards success. This is more than just his life story, it is virtually a guide to follow to avoid some of these problems for yourself.

About the authors
PAUL HIGBEE writes for magazines nationally, from in-flight airline publications to the University of Notre Dame's continuing education magazine. He is a longtime South Dakotan, living in the Black Hills, and serving as South Dakota Magazine's Black Hills feature writer and columnist since 1991. Paul is especially interested in writing about business matters, including entrepreneurship and revival of impoverished communities. In 2004 he was selected as South Dakota's Business Journalist of the Year by the U.S Small Business Administration. Paul also writes for television and was co-writer of Dakota Pathways, a South Dakota Public TV series awarded an Emmy for outstanding achievement in programming for children. He is a graduate of the University of Notre Dame.

KEN STEINKEN has led a double life for the last 20-plus years. By day he's a mild-mannered husband and father of three now-adult children, and an enthusiastic high school teacher in Rapid City, SD. By night and other stolen moments, he's a determined writer of mostly nonfiction. His writing has been published in a diverse array of newspapers, magazines, books and websites including Columbia Journalism Review, Notre Dame Magazine, Indian Country Today, Toronto Globe & Mail, Reader's Digest, The Houston Post, and Christianity Today. He is currently working on Dark Territory: Caught in a Coal Train's Path. This book tracks the personal impacts of our nation's ravenous appetite for electricity from Wyoming coal fields, across rural landscapes, through Midwestern towns, to Chicago power plants.
