I will probably walk many paths before espousing a route of my own. Like the American auto industry, the John Company was bailed out several times by the government, who eventually set up a committee to take control away from its Directors. A fascinating book, has everything from geological surveying to parties with Arab nationalists to the segregation of Arab employees from white employees. All the other characters were confusing and I constantly felt like I had skipped a few pages because I would su
