DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor the first time the complete financial history of Berkshire Hathaway is available under one cover in chronological format. Beginning at the origins of the predecessor companies in the textile industry, the reader can examine the development of the modern-day conglomerate year-by-year and decade-by-decade, watching as the struggling textile company morphs into what it has become today. This comprehensive analysis distils over 10,000 pages of research material, including Buffett’s Chairman’s letters, Berkshire Hathaway annual reports and SEC filings, annual meeting transcripts, subsidiary financials, and more. The analysis of each year is supplemented with Buffett’s own commentary where relevant, and examines all important acquisitions, investments, and other capital allocation decisions. The appendices contain balance sheets, income statements, statements of cash flows, and key ratios dating back to the 1930s, materials brought together for the first time. The structure of the book allows the new student to follow the logic, reasoning, and capital allocation decisions made by Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger from the very beginning. Existing Berkshire shareholders and long-time observers will find new information and refreshing analysis, and a convenient reference guide to the decades of financial moves that built the modern-day respected enterprise that is Berkshire Hathaway.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Book of Berkshire: Describing and Illustrating Its Hills and Homes and Telling Where They Are, What They Are and Why They Are Destined to Become the Most Charming and Desirable Summer Homes in America; For the Season of 1887 The outcome of a thorough revision and re-writing of The Book of Berkshire, originally published in 1886, is A New Book of Berkshire for 1890. The words of introduction used on the occasion of the first issue of the book are as pertinent and proper now as then, and were these: - Berkshire, by common consent, is not only a good place to be born in, but a good place to live in, and a good place to die in, as well. It is also prominently recognized as a good place to go out from, and equally a good place to come back to. Its traditions are marvelously full, rich and interesting. Its history is replete with story, song and incident - with mention of good deeds, of patriotism, valor, chivalry and refinement; of enviable record and renown, and "last, but not least," - so to speak - it is big with promise for the future; that is to say, To-Day sees rising from the embers of its altars and its fires of Yesterday, a wealth of golden wreaths around the brows of fame and fortune, with which to gloriously perpetuate its To-Morrow. The record which Berkshire has made, both at home and abroad, is one to be proudly recited and to be read of admiringly and profitably. Its beauties of form, its favorable features of landscape, and its pictures of loveliness, in combination, are unsurpassed, however broad the comparison may be made.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWarren Buffett is a legend primarily for his investment philosophy. He isn’t concerned about the intricacies of the market, but instead focuses on the quality of the companies Berkshire Hathaway stands behind. Yet we know little about the leaders of the companies that Buffett handpicks. In Behind the Berkshire Hathaway Curtain: Lessons from Warren Buffett’s Top Business Leaders, author Ronald W. Chan — founder and CEO of Chartwell Capital — offers a behind-the-scenes look into the careers of Berkshire Hathaway executives who have both directly and indirectly contributed to the conglomerate’s success. Drawing on exclusive interviews from Berkshire leaders, Chan vividly describes how an exceptional group of managers has built a culture of achievement. With a keen eye for detail, he shows how their lessons can be applied for career success and personal fulfillment. Brimming with practical advice, the book will appeal to both executives and employees wanting to improve their leadership skills and work performance. Covering the career and life decisions of David Sokol of MidAmerican Energy, Cathy Baron-Tamraz of Business Wire, Dennis Knautz of Acme Brick, Randy Watson of Justin Brands, Stan Lipsey of Buffalo News, and many more, the book offers a wide range of business insights, philosophies, and strategies directly from leaders at the top of their fields.
