About the book
Financial journalist Roger Lowenstein tells the life of Warren Buffett, the Berkshire Hathaway chief who built one of the great fortunes of the twentieth century by picking stocks and companies. Lowenstein had three years of access to Buffett's family, friends and colleagues. His record made him a cult figure known for apparent contradictions: a billionaire with a modest lifestyle, an investor who avoids rapid trading, a dealmaker with a homespun manner. The portrait is sympathetic but clear about a man whose integrity, conscientiousness and humor sit beside a strange emotional distance. Lowenstein also argues that the investment method of buying undervalued companies and holding them until their value shows reflects Buffett's character. Sixteen pages of photos are included.
Bill Gates wrote that while other books cover Buffett and his investment strategy, this one is the pick until Buffett writes his own.

Other books have been written about Warren Buffett and his investment strategy, but until Warren writes his own book, this is the one to read.
