About This Item
London: Little Brown, 2008. 1st p/b ed.. Paperback octavo, very good condition, bottom corner front cover little creased, small dent top edge front cover & first few pages, top spine little bumped, few tiny tears fore-edge last few pages, minor edgewear. 340 pp. Tim Bouquet and Byron Ousey relate the story of the biggest and most hard-fought British industry takeover of recent years. Lakshmi Mittal is a self-made Indian industrialist who grew up walking on the bare floors of a house built by his grandfather and sleeping on rope beds. Today he is the richest man in Britain, and the fifth richest man in the world. He could have hardly been more different from the brilliant and mercurial Frenchman Guy Dolle, CEO of Luxembourg-based Arcelor, the worldâs largest steel producer by turnover. The authors have had unprecedented access to all of the major players, making this the definitive account of the takeover that defined an era.
