I found an interesting book to read, the other day, while wandering around the skilled nursing facility (pt/ot rehab).
Title : King Larry | The Life and Ruins Of A Billionaire Genius.
Author: James D. Scurlock.
Publisher: Scribner, 2012.
I've only read the introduction, a mere few pages, but the author gives meticulous attention to the man who gave birth to DHL, which was doing business long before FedEx (50 year head start) and how Larry Hillblom was not only a business genius but how his behavioral choices, hiding in plain sight, would be the long remembered undoing of his so called financial empire (and not his business acumen).
I haven't even finished with chapter one and already give it a huge props. Very good book. Very enlightening. Tragic story.
