Martha Inc.: The Incredible Story of Martha Stewart… por Christopher M. Byron
I believe Martha wasn't too pleased her "friend" would publish this and give inside information about her life. I found the book to be most interesting and didn't find it to put her in a bad light at all, but quite the opposite. She is an intelligent woman. I don't approve that she put her career before her daughter.
A long time ago I purchased a used copy of Martha Inc. for $3.00 and finally got around to reading it. I read one celebrity biography a year and this was the one I picked for this year. I ended up admiring Martha Stewart for her drive and her business acumen, even though this was clearly not a biography that was friendly to her. There is no doubt that she played the celebrity game right and parleyed that into a wonderfully large pile of money for herself and her heirs. Beat the boys on Wall Street at their own game. You go girl!… (más)
How one incredibly smart woman turned domestic duties into a multi-million dollar business and media empire. The book is a very interesting read on the rise of this company and how Martha's business practices developed changes in media and sponsorship retail programmes.
I would not have read this except for the fact that we read it in book club. That said, I found it absorbing. It is so hard to tell how much of this information is filtered by the author's perspective, which is not particularly flattering, but it is an interesting story nonetheless. It is most helpful when describing how Stewart built up her business and how she went about it.
