Business Adventures remains the best business book I’ve ever read.” —Bill Gates, The Wall Street Journal What do the $350 million Ford Motor Company disaster known as the Edsel, the fast and incredible rise of Xerox, and the unbelievable scandals at General Electric and Texas Gulf Sulphur have in common? Each is an example of how an iconic company was defined by a particular moment of fame or notoriety; these notable and fascinating accounts are as relevant today to understanding the intricacies of corporate life as they were when the events happened. Stories about Wall Street are infused with drama and adventure and reveal the machinations and volatile nature of the world of finance. Longtime New Yorker contributor John Brooks’s insightful reportage is so full of personality and critical detail that whether he is looking at the astounding market crash of 1962, the collapse of a well-known brokerage firm, or the bold attempt by American bankers to save the British pound, one gets the sense that history repeats itself. Five additional stories on equally fascinating subjects round out this wonderful collection that will both entertain and inform readers . . . Business Adventures is truly financial journalism at its liveliest and best.

Yes, like many people I read that Warren Buffett and Bill Gates both consider this book 1 of the best ever written. In fact, as the story goes, Bill Gates got his copy from Warren Buffett.Other than the interesting history in the book, it is of limited value in the current business world. It would be a can to reading about how hard it was treating medical diseases in the 1900s before the invention or discovery of antibiotics and anesthesia. It's interesting but of historical interest only. There's very little that can be gleaned or used in today's current and modern world.I'm old enough to remember all of the anecdotes and stories that are told. However, even I can understand how many of the descriptions and explanations of the business issues are not applicable in today's world.Read it for idle curiosity. Do not expect any great insight.
