“Not long after I first met Warren Buffet back in 1991, I asked him to recommend his favorite book about business. He didn’t miss a beat:“It’s’Business Adventures’,by John Brooks,” he said. “I’ll send you my copy.” I was intrigued: I had never heard of “Business Adventures” or John Brooks. Today, more than two decades after Warren lent it to me-and more than four decades after it was first published-“Business Adventures” remains the best business book I have ever read. John Brooks is still my favorite business writer. (And Warren, if you are reading this, I still have your copy)
“1991年我第一次遇见沃伦·巴菲特,在那之后不久我让他给我推荐一本他最喜欢的商业书籍。他毫不犹豫的说:“约翰·布鲁克斯的《商业历险》吧,我把我的那本送给你。”我很困惑:我从来没有听说过《商业历险》,也没有听说过约翰·布鲁克斯。今天距离沃伦把《商业历险》这本书送给我的时候已经20多年了,这本书自出版以来也有40多年了,它依然是我读过的最好的商业书籍。约翰·布鲁克斯也依然是我最喜欢的商业作家。(至于沃伦,如果你看到了我所说的话,那么我要告诉你我仍然收藏着你送我的那版)”
Stories about Wall Street are infused with drama and reveal the machinations and violate nature of the world of finance. John Brook’s insightful reportage is so full of personality and critical detail whether he is looking at the market crash of 1962, the collapse of a well- known brokerage firm, or the bold attempt by American bankers to save the British pound, one gets the sense that history repeats itself.
