In the late 1990s, a scrappy online bookseller called Amazon is founded by Jeff Bezos, a driven visionary with limitless ambition. As Bezos rapidly expands Amazon into a retail behemoth, he transforms the industry and builds a culture of secrecy that has never been cracked - until now. This is the first in-depth account of the genius behind Amazon's meteoric rise.
