Description
Roman Abramovich's incredible journey from poverty to billionaire is revealed in this gripping biography. Journalists Dominic Midgley and Chris Hutchins uncover the exclusive stories behind his rise to power, including his Jewish background, friendships with Kremlin insiders, and business deals that made him a fortune in less than ten years. Using exhaustive primary research, the authors examine Abramovich's role in the rise of Russia's oligarchs, his investment in Chelsea FC, and the ambition that promises to make him a household name. This is a story of risk-taking, courage, shrewdness, ruthlessness, and subtle charm - a true thriller about one of the most powerful men in the world. Well-researched and fluently written, this book offers a superb insight into Abramovich's life and the world of Russian oligarchy.
