Alice Schroeder: The Snowball : Warren Buffett and the Business of Life (Hardcover); 2008 Edition
Boring
In good condition, just as described. Thank you.
Alice Schroeder has a great voice in this biography. I can hardly put it down -- well written and well-researched, this book provides an honest look at Warren Buffett's life and his values.
Wonderful book - a terrific delivery - listened to it in car on a 2,000 mile driving trip.
surely helped the miles fly past.

The Snowball is an in-depth review of Warren Buffett's life. At times I found this book surprisingly candid as it identified the frailties as well as strengths of Warren Buffett. This helped me associate with Warren Buffett the person and in my opinion, makes him seem all the more impressive given the challenges he had to overcome during this rise to fame. In addition to a candid personal assessment, this book provides a solid approach to wealth management as well as living life in general. I found The Snowball to be a must read for those interested in leadership, self-help, or even just a good story about a remarkable individual.
Simply too lengthy for my taste. The book could have been 200 pages shorter without losing any of its researched information. Still a good read, especially if you know nothing of the man.
