Cottage Country Reflections
"Alice Combs is a pistol! After a period of time on food stamps, as a newly divorced mom back in the ’70s, when women were still fighting for acceptance in the workplace, she created a business, Vulcan Wire, selling baling wire. She went all out and became an entrepreneur. In a male-dominated business world, she fought hard and long and smart. She really has balls—guts and determination. I was amazed by what she accomplished. It’s a great read!"
Feathered Quill Book Reviews
"Quill says: Anyone hoping to make a success in the highly competitive realm of small business can learn from author Combs, and anyone who likes the motivational account of a woman’s rise to power in a man’s world will find the story of The Lady with Balls inspiring and educational."

"On this level alone Combs gives us a memoir deserving of our attention, but in baring her emotional wounds and vulnerabilities she gives us the authenticity readers have come to demand. A far cry from the kiss-and-tell memoirs of dubious celebrities, Combs’s self-made path to success feels true to life, and it’s the raw honesty with which she writes that will strike a chord with so many. Add to this Combs’s ‘Seven Basic Business Lessons,’ and The Lady with Balls proves a highly engaging memoir that leads to much reflection. It is recommended without reservation."
