Good History Book!

I live in the same town that the author's sister,Mrs. Jean McAdams lives in.She provided me with this book and wanted me to read it and do a review.This turned out to be a very good book. This book is the life story of G. Clifford Noble.He turned out to be one of the biggest book distibutors in the world.He began his business career at the age of twelve dealing in aggs.He grew up in the state of Massachusetts after the Civil War.He graduated from Harvard and moved to New York City in 1886.His first job as a clerk at a small wholesale and retail bookstore began a career in bookselling.His uncanny business sense and management skills led to his sucess in the business of selling books.He eventually established two book companies.Barnes and Noble and Noble and Noble.This book tracks his sucess in the world of bookselling.This is a good historical book that you should read.
