Read it:
Los Angeles, Albany, Chicago and Toronto, 1885 to 2025. Four men and one woman run operating businesses and spend the cash the businesses throw off, and the spending is the whole of their art. Henry Singleton assembles a hundred and thirty companies with overpriced stock and then buys ninety percent of that stock back. Tom Murphy runs television stations and newspapers from a head office with no legal department and no strategic planner. Mark Leonard writes shareholders a letter about a hurdle rate and then stops taking a salary. Sam Zell buys buildings nobody wants and sells the largest office company in America three months before the top. Hetty Green does the same arithmetic for fifty years and leaves almost no paper at all. Covers Henry Singleton, Tom Murphy, Mark Leonard, Sam Zell, and Hetty Green.
