Hardcover. Condition: Good. Business Adventures remains the best business book Ive ever read. -Bill Gates, The Wall Street JournalWhat do the $350 million Ford Motor Company disaster known as the Edsel, the fast and incredible rise of Xerox, and the unbelievable scandals at General Electric and Texas Gulf Sulphur have in common? Each is an example of how an iconic company was defined by a particular moment of fame or notoriety; these notable and fascinating accounts are as relevant today to understanding the intricacies of corporate life as they were when the events happened.Stories about Wall Street are infused with drama and adventure and reveal the machinations and volatile nature of the world of finance. Longtime New Yorker contributor John Brookss insightful reportage is so full of personality and critical detail that whether he is looking at the astounding market crash of 1962, the collapse of a well-known brokerage firm, or the bold attempt by American bankers to save the British pound, one gets the sense that history repeats itself.Five additional stories on equally fascinating subjects round out this wonderful collection that will both entertain and inform readers . . . Business Adventures is truly financial journalism at its liveliest and best.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Jacket design by Betty Binns (illustrator). Book Club Edition. Although this copy is entirely bound in black cloth with apple green endpapers (just like the similarly sized trade editions) and states "Third printing, February, 1969" to copyright page, the absence of any price from the (unclipped) jacket front flap, and the presence of a small, square, blind deboss to bottom of rear board at spine, tell us this is in fact a book-club edition. Blindstamped "Library of Robert A. Weber" to several preliminary pages. Author Brooks, who wrote regularly for the New Yorker (where all of these pieces first appeared, albeit "in different form"), here gives us 50 pp. on the fate of the Ford Edsel (presumably condensed from his earlier, 1963 book of that title), with additional chapters on the rise of Xerox; on David Lilienthal; on the price-rigging of industrial transformers and generators by Westinghouse, GE, and others (as revealed to the public by Sen. Estes Kefauver); on the weird social and economic distortions caused by the intricacies of the federal income tax, etc. Business. 399 pp. including index. Reduced from $1,200.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Jacket design by Betty Binns (illustrator). States "Third printing, February, 1969." Be aware, however, that the book-club editions of this title are precisely the same size, and similarly bound in all black cloth with apple green endpapers. The way we know this is NOT a book-club edition, but instead the true third trade printing (one month after the first) is that our unclipped dust jacket here is priced $10, and we find here NO small square book-club deboss to bottom of rear board at the spine. Small (3/8ths-inch) closed tear to bottom of jacket front panel, and jacket rear flap shows a soft vertical fold. Brooks, who wrote regularly for the New Yorker (where all of these pieces first appeared, albeit "in different form"), here gives us 50 pp. on the fate of the Ford Edsel (presumably condensed from his earlier, 1963 book of that title), with additional chapters on the rise of Xerox; on David Lilienthal; on the price-rigging of industrial transformers and generators by Westinghouse, GE, and others (as revealed to the public by Sen. Estes Kefauver); on the weird social and economic distortions caused by the intricacies of the federal income tax, etc. Business. 399 pp. including index. Reduced from $1300.
