--Newsweek
"Best Mom & Pop business in America"
--Reader's Digest America's 100 Best

--Mikhail S. Gorbachev, chairman, Green Cross International
"Gary Erickson believes that doing good and doing business should go hand in hand. Raising the Bar tells the inspiring story of a scrappy company's battle to stay privately owned and to better its people, the community, and the planet in the process."
--Ben Cohen, cofounder, Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, and president, TrueMajority.org

--Julia Butterfly Hill, author, The Legacy of Luna
"Gary Erickson's story is sheer inspiration. Reading it makes you want to ride a bike up a high mountain, dust off your musical instrument and join a jazz band, or launch an outrageous company. This is a life manual masquerading as a business book."
--David Batstone, author, Saving the Corporate Soul; professor of ethics, University of San Francisco
"In Raising the Bar, Gary Erickson's incredible journey raises our expectations of corporate America and most importantly our hope for a better world."
