Annotation

Business writer Roger Lowenstein's definitive biography of investor Warren Buffett charts the rise of this visionary and iconoclastic businessman, who, beginning in the 1950s, acquired a great fortune, yet who lived a relatively modest (for his wealth) lifestyle. Lowenstein conveys Buffett's business acumen with fascinating tales of rational business practices and exuberant expressions of a unique, sometimes skeptical world view. He covers both the public and private aspects of Buffett the businessman, philanthropist, and family man.
