succinct and powerful

I've read numerous books about Buffett. What i really like about this book is it's brevity.The author has assembled Warren's most poignant, pithy and brilliant quotes in one short , sharp book.I learnt more about Buffett's philosophies from the this little gem than from any other book on the subject.Frankly, it's a pity most other busineess books aren't this succinct.An outstanding read.

The 'Vest-Pocket' Warren Buffett

This is a great little book that encapsulates the life and investment career of the most widely written about investor in history, Warren Buffett. It is a collection of Warren's wit, wisdom, humor and charm spanning his very successful career as Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway. The book is a collection of quotations covering everything from hiring people to his final goal: "What I want people to say when they pass my casket is, Boy was he old!" This little book is inspiring, funny and gives insights into what made Warren so successful. The author, Siimon Reynold, ends the book with a basic interpretation of Buffett's rules of investing. I call this book the "Vest-Pocket" Warren Buffett. It is an easy read that you'll refer to over and over.
