There are so much to learn from Rockefeller the person behind the legend. He is hugely reliable and resilient, famously frugal, daring in design but cautious in execution, strangely humble and compassionate for a man in his position, and above all he’s pious and devoutly religious. He rarely speaks when it is not necessary, and thus he gives the controlled aura of a mysterious person. He is notoriously calm and composed, a stoic and cautious character. What his legendary demeanour was like, his decision makings in business, the way he carries himself throughout crisis, about his parenting style, his relationship with the people around him, his extended family and their dynamism and later their philanthropic activities, his difficult upbringing with a volatile father, and so much more. This is an 834 pages book filled with everything imaginable about John D. There are so many things that we can learn from biographies, and this one is a prime example for that.
