Acerca de este libro electrónico

His perspective informed by everything from his father's meager childhood and remarkable successes as a trader on the New York Curb Exchange to his own three years of service as secretary of commerce in George H.W. Bush's administration, Mosbacher, the grandson of immigrants, possessed a distinctive vantage point on U.S. business and politics. In this volume of tightly woven, lively memories, he takes readers on an unforgettable ride with his father through the New York City of the 1930s, narrates his discovery of a huge natural gas field in the 1950s, and tells of his deepening involvement with the business and political power structures of Texas and the nation, beginning in the 1970s. Along the way, Mosbacher offers insights from family, business, and public life alike, with stories that engage, charm, and instruct.
