Schweitzer Klassifikation
When Harper graduated from Brown University with a history degree, there was no inkling that a career as a writer would follow. After running a successful business for years, then launching the Social Impact Conference to support business owners, artists and activists dedicated to positive social change, Harper realized that story-telling was fundamental to changing the world and that history housed the greatest stories of them all.
Harper especially enjoys finding important but forgotten, or misunderstood, figures from history and bringing them back to life so that the reader can learn about them firsthand. Some recent favorite books include
Strange Angel (George Pendle),
Billion Dollar Whale (Bradley Hope, et. al), and
Revolution (Russell Brand).
Why don't you join Harper on a
"roller coaster ride through history" that you never knew existed?
