"The Real Deal: The Life of Bill Knapp," which was written by
award-winning author and Simpson College history professor William
B. Friedricks, is an inspiring story on the personal history of
Bill Knapp and provides readers with an inside look at the growth
and development of Greater Des Moines over the past 80 years. The
Book depicts a scrappy, hard-working Allerton, Iowa farm-boy who
left by way of the United States Navy to pave a new path toward
financial independence and entrepreneurial success. Despite the
many challenges along the way, Knapp turns each into opportunities
for capitalization. His tenacity and vision drives his
transformation into the real estate tycoon and community
philanthropist we know today. "Bill Knapp has always had an "aura,"
a "presence" about him that spoke of strength and confidence, of
purpose and direction, and yes, of deep feeling and compassion.
William Friedricks's excellent biography captures both the
wellspring and life development of the Bill Knapp "aura." A great
history of the person and the growth of Central Iowa. I loved every
page " -Tom Harkin, United States Senator from Iowa
