Authorized Warren Buffett biography to hit stores on Sept 29
There are of course, numerous books on Buffett, but the difference with this one is that it is the first book written with his consent and cooperation. All of 976 pages long and published by Bantam Dell, the book is authored by former Morgan Stanley insurance analyst Alice Schroeder, with the title being, ”The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life”. Apparently, this is courtesy a comment by Buffett: “Life is like a snowball. The really important thing is finding wet snow and a really long hill.”
They first met when Schroeder, in her capacity as analyst, covered Berkshire Hathaway Inc, and has spent countless hours with Buffett, talking about his life and career, gaining access to his memorabilia and those around him. The book was initially to be released to coincide with Berkshire’s annual shareholder meeting in May, but was delayed.
The price of the book has been set at $35, but you can pre-order it on Amazon for $23.10. At 976 pages, it is going to be a really looooong read, but definitely one that I will be looking forward to.
