The town of Millinocket rests at the junction where the West Branch of the Penobscot River and the Millinocket Stream converge. In 1898, settlers arrived in the area and carved a town out of the wilderness, constructing the Great Northern Paper Company, the largest paper mill in the world at that time. Utilizing the waterways, lumbermen floated the logs downriver to feed the mill and export paper around the globe. The town and mill sprang up practically overnight, built at a fevered pace to keep up with the paper demand, and gave Millinocket the nickname Magic City in Maines Wilderness. Today Millinocket is the closest town to the famous Baxter State Park and Maines highest peak, Mount Katahdin. As the gateway to the Allagash region, Millinocket draws tourists year-round with its numerous outdoor activities.

All copyrights reserved by Author David F Anderson Sr The writers cut 2024. One of the great things about self-publishing your work is the ability to rewrite. That is why this is my second bite of the apple. I am trying. Disclaimer Before you read any further, you should understand. I have dyslexia. It is a learning disability. I have no training in writing at all. Everything in this book, from cover to cover, is me. I am the writer, editor, cover designer, and I am in charge of sales. My stories come to me like little movies. For more than three decades, this family terrorized the entire country with their actions. They did so with the blessing of government officials, including police officers and clergymen. They did it with the blessings of communities. They did it all right in front of us. This family and their evil deeds touch our lives even if you didn't live there.

David A. Jones Always Moving Forward

A Memoir of Friends, Family and Building Humana

By: David A. Jones, Jr.,Jill Johnson-Keeny,Julia Comer

The story of friends, family, hometown values - and an entrepreneur who changed American healthcare forever In 1961, David Jones and another young lawyer borrowed $1,000 each to build a nursing home. That modest investment turned into Humana: first the largest nursing home company in the U.S., then the largest hospital corporation, and today one of the nation's largest health insurance companies, with 65,000 employees and a value of $65 billion. "I've always believed there's nothing being done that can't be done better," Jones writes in this engaging account of American entrepreneurship. He also advocates hiring ordinary people who learn fast and get things done, rather than relying on expert credentials. But Always Looking Forward is about so much more: The controversy over for-profit medicine: Jones explains why he was "proudly not non-profit." The artificial heart: The world watched as a Humana team implanted the Jarvik-7 into a man who lived 620 days. A sixteen-year-long humanitarian mission: After the collapse of the Berlin wall and Eastern European economies, President George H. W. Bush asked Jones to help rebuild the Romanian healthcare system, which had been devastated by war and a corrupt dictator. 9/11: Jones and 23 Humana executives were at Ground Zero when the planes hit. They tell the harrowing story. Life lessons learned: For example, "Family first" and "You don't have a clear idea unless it fits on the back of a business card." Business failures as well as successes. Jones also was a great philanthropist, although mostly anonymously. His final legacy is one of the largest metropolitan parks completed this century - a project led by him and one of his sons in their hometown of Louisville, Kentucky.
