More than 100 cautionary tales about individuals who attained success, power and prestige, only, most often through their own doing, to lose it all. A paean to humility, morality and common sense. As Dirty Harry once said, "a man's got to know his limitations." This book is the flip side of the author's best-selling motivational title, "Extraordinary Comebacks: 201 Inspiring Stories of Courage, Triumph, and Success." Book covers adventure, arts, athletics, business, crime, entertainment, finance, media, medical, military, music (pop and classical), nature, politics, science, and spirituality.
