"Raised on a bankrupt farm along the Mississippi River, Allen E. Paulson would become the owner of the Fortune 500 aerospace empire Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation. Paulson was ambitious and reticent, generous and frugal, confident and dogged by self-doubt. Paulson played by the rules and took each success and setback in stride, always with an unflagging entrepreneurial spirit"-- Provided by publisher.
