Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist,
by Roger Lowenstein.
 The short citation next to Warren Buffett’s 1947 high school yearbook picture read, “Likes math . . . a
future stockbroker.” Indeed, although that was written years before his
fateful experience as Benjamin Graham’s finest student, Buffett was
seemingly already on the road to a career in investing. Buffett:
The Making of an American Capitalist is a fascinating 1995 book on
the life of the ‘Oracle of Omaha,’ written by one of the best financial
writers of our time. Roger Lowenstein takes the reader through Warren
Buffett’s experiences not only in terms of his investment skills and
accomplishments, but also in terms of his personal life. Thus, although
there is enough investment wisdom in this book to make it worthwhile on
that basis alone, this is more a fascinating biography of the man who
has become, to date, the most successful investor in history. This is a
highly enjoyable and interesting read. |
