Thirsty Horse Book

Pete Jernigan tells his life story in a refreshingly honest, down-to-earth style. A fascinating candid memoir of an individual who overcomes a troubled childhood to build a hugely successful business—only to be ousted after selling to a private equity firm for $60 million.

His removal when he was battling prostate cancer sent him into a spiral of despair.

In Thirsty Horse, Pete tells how he overcame obstacle after obstacle in his journey towards the pinnacle of business success and how he bounced back from his personal, health and business crises with a renewed outlook, new vigor, and proved that he could do it all over again.

Pete writes from a position of experience and leadership—the company he founded, Tower Engineering Professionals (TEP), became the biggest of its kind in the nation with a reputation for honesty and integrity.

More than a life story, Pete delivers numerous strategies and techniques for business success. His message: anyone can make it to the top if they are focused and driven (and have a modicum of talent). He calls it being a “thirsty horse.”
