Book excerpt: Whether learning to ride a bicycle or surviving personal or business challenges, Louise always followed her father’s advice to encourage perseverance with every endeavor: “Keep Pedaling, L.B. Don't Give Up...” and thus the title of this book. This is an action-packed autobiography from childhood in an English coastal town during bombing raids in WWII, to self-employment and growing a successful business with her husband at a time when few women were considered capable of doing so. Follow Louise and her family as more personal and professional challenges in the 70’s led them to experience eventual emigration to California and the acquisition of a second business. Tragedy struck with the advent of the Los Angeles riots in 1992, which led to more government bureaucracy, near financial disaster, lots of red tape, and a number of shady characters. Then the ensuing world-wide recession was almost an insurmountable event, but by sticking with the “Keep Pedaling” principle, survival was achieved.
