How about those excerpts from the James Packer story that were all over the press over the weekend? They made for fascinating reading.
The embargo is lifted this morning on Paul Barry’s Who Wants to be a Billionaire? and our stock, signed by the author, will be whisked over to the warehouse this afternoon. We’ve got it at a great price too – 20% off at $39.95.
Paul is also doing a piece to camera for us in the next day or so which we will put on the site.
I can’t wait to read the whole story – family dramas, power and passion, fortunes made and lost. Paul Barry is among our top investigative journalists as anyone familiar with his books and Four Corners work will know. He has written extensively on Shane Warne, Alan Bond and Kerry Packer in the past. And if you did read those excerpts on the weekend, you will realise his special talent is to make real the situations that are only just hinted at in the headlines.
By the way, I am not sure if we will get a second bite of the cherry, so if you want a copy signed by the author, you better order quickly. A great Christmas present for anyone interested in the giants of the contemporary Australian business and social scene – and no doubt a text book example of the sins of the father being visited on the son. I know what I will be reading this week.
