Title: A truly human perspective of a mythic figure
Product review: John D. is one of those characters from history whose myth produces a distinct view of the man. The author does a great job of keeping a healthy distance to provide an objective portrayal of this tycoon.If you are intersted in a book that will help you understand the differeent sides to a human being, this is certainly a good choice. Rockefeller's strengths allowed him to amass an amazing fortune and fund the America we have come to know today. At the same time, he caused a lot of pain and anguish to business rivals and family members.Throughout the entire book the author successfully shows how complex we are as people. In one moment we are able to provide some much joy/happiness and in the next capable of causing pain. This book goes farther than just business, it digs into the psyche of an amazing historical figure.
