Kirby's Way: How Kirby and Caroline Risk Built Their Company on Kitchen-Table Values

The life of Kirby Risk is quite a story.  Angie Klink tells us much about this successful local businessman, husband, father, son, community leader who grew up and raised both his family and his business in Lafayette. And as we learn more about Kirby Risk, we learn too about Purdue and Lafayette as the town, the University, and the man both grew and flourished from the 1930’s into the 1970’s and beyond.

Nick Schenkel, retired Director of the West Lafayette Public Library, is a long time WBAA contributor who reviews books from all walks of literature.
