Forbes Greatest Business Stories of All Time

This is a quick read of 20 different stories that have historically and tremendously impacted all of us. This book is inspirational and instructional in content, and although I had heard many of these stories before I gleaned many ideas for my own business. The other issue I noticed is that these stories impacted the world and they all took place right here in the US, yet they continue to influence globalization today.

The stories start with the nations money raising head during the revolution war, which was interesting and I had never heard of before. Interesting book well worth reading. The book was in great condition.

Some great stories and insights into common household name businesses ... many I never heard of before.

great book

Good material in good condition

Perfect

The foreword/introduction by Forbes turned me off hard initially by stating that the individuals storied in this book are heroes at the same level as soldiers. I don't care who you are in the business world -- that is false. The only real risks these people took were financial, and making money by taking risk doesn't make you a hero, it makes you a successful businessperson and capitalist.That ridiculous sentiment aside (in the author's defense, he didn't write it), there is some valuable content here, and while I didn't feel blown away, I didn't feel that I had completely wasted my time, either. The book covers a lot of stories in a short span and provides enough detail that you get a feel for each history without getting lost in trivialities.

I love Forbes so I cant go wrong with this

Very pleased with this book very interesting read.

Great purchase, clean and all pages in tact
