Publisher's Synopsis
Lowenstein reveals the man behind the financial genius - a man who he prefers to buy his suits of the peg and lives on a diet of pepsi cola and cheeseburgers. The author also examines his relationships with his wife and his mistress and in this clear-eyed biography paints Buffett as the antithesis of today's reckless Wall Street, showing that his work is his life - a recipe for success that has a personal price.
