## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Maybe the best book I've read to date. 10 years after the release, but at the right time for me.
            
*by R***T on July 19, 2019*

Only about one third of the way through, and this may be the best book I've ever read. At least at this point in the book, I think that Ted Turner may be the best candidate for the job of benign despot that Michael Herr used to describe Stanley Kubrick's political beliefs:"Stanley had views on everything, but I would not exactly call them political... His views on democracy were those of most people I know, neither left nor right, not exactly brimming with belief, a noble failed experiment along our evolutionary way, brought low by base instincts, money and self-interest and stupidity... He thought the best system might be under a benign despot, though he had little belief that such a man could be found. He wasn't a cynic, but he could have easily passed for one. He was certainly a capitalist. He believed himself to be a realist."
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's a quick entertaining read worth your time.
            
*by I***S on January 30, 2013*

Overall I thought the book was well worth it.  It's a quick and entertaining read. The book steps through Teds life from adolescence to adulthood.  It shows you hard work and perseverance can pay off..In the wake of his father's suicide and the imminent sale of the family billboard company, Ted turned things around and made his dad proud. Quickly moving into radio, and finally Television, he also made a name for himself in the world of professional yacht racing..  Too bad he didn't have me around to tell him merging with AOL was a bad idea ;)As with the case of most "outliers", Ted was in the right place at the right time doing the right things for "most" of his career. Undoubtedly this book proves once again "timing is everything"... Just the same, Ted seized these opportunities and made it happen. The guy even courted Jane Fonda and was successful.... definitely a person I would like to meet some day.  Well played Ted, Well played..
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I've read a lot of business biographies, and this one was excellent
            
*by R***P on November 29, 2008*

I had forgotten about what an amazing life Ted Turner has had, from winning the America's Cup (as the skipper) to winning the World Series (as an owner) and building the cable industry.  His is an inspiring story and the personal side is interetsing as well.I have read many of the big business biographies, and some are more substantive and rewarding than others.  This one is worth reading.  If you are interested in the history of the media business from the 1960's on, particularly in the creation of cable, you will be interested.  If you are interested in entrepreneurial stories in general, I think this will be rewarding.  And I think along the way you will get interested in Turner as a person as well.I zipped through it in two nights (not because it was short but because I was interested).If I could change the book at all I might have had him pause more and explain at greater length some of his transitions from conservative to liberal and from Christian to agnostic.  That would have been interesting but I think he wanted to focus on the business stuff, which I suppose is smart.
