Klappentext The definitive story of Amazon.com! one of the most successful companies in the world! and of its driven! brilliant founder! Jeff Bezos. Amazon.com started off delivering books through the mail. But its visionary founder! Jeff Bezos! wasn't content with being a bookseller. He wanted Amazon to become the everything store! offering limitless selection and seductive convenience at disruptively low prices.

Brad Stone enjoyed unprecedented access to current and former Amazon employees and Bezos family members! giving readers the first in-depth! fly-on-the-wall account of life at Amazon. Compared to tech's other elite innovators--Jobs! Gates! Zuckerberg--Bezos is a private man.
