American By Choice is the remarkable story of an industrious young man from Lebanon, who, trusting God, came to America in 1950 with 600 in his pocket; and eventually led Thomas Nelson, Incorporated to become the world's largest Christian Publishing company. His father had given him some prudent advice: "Be honest, work hard, and don't be afraid to take a chance." A mentor had encouraged him, "God can use you."
