Fascinating Story!

As someone who has an MBA, and loves reading about people who build something up from nothing, I really enjoyed this book. I also happen to be a liquor lover, and just recently began doing some consulting work for a Vodka firm, and think that this piece of work was incredibly helpful. Everyone who typically enjoys this type of book will absolutely love this title, and they should buy it. If you enjoy fun tales of how a huge brand was built, this has all of the key essentials. You will love this book if you typically enjoy this genre. Enjoy!
