Publish and Flourish! A Consultant's Guide: How to Boost Visibility and Earnings Through a Publishing Strategy Book

For anyone who doesn't wish to buy the (audio)book, you can download this off librivox.org (volunteers who make public domain versions of audiobooks of books that have since passed into the public domain..) or the full text off Google books.

This was a very nice short story about tireless persistence and ingenuity with the primary character being a "disabled" veteran of WWI (contrasted with other lazy workers the bosses knew) who consistently beats the almost "impossible" odds stacked against him and always seems to have some backup plan.

Really wish I could say more, as I definitely enjoyed it. Despite being first published in 1921, almost seemed to have a strange intuition as if it could have been written after WWII as they have that quote (attributed to Patton) of how you should tell someone what needs to be done, but not insulting their intelligence by telling them how to do it. Maybe the borderline spoiler is that if a task seems odd and great, it's possible you're being groomed or simply tested for bigger and better possibilities.
