My husband loves classic cars, and every morning, he wakes up and watches the car channel. I wanted this gift for him, so I had to listen first. The book jumps into the beautiful world of car enthusiasts and the ups and downs of founders navigating their entrepreneurial journeys. The book contains exciting tales of innovation, challenges, and triumphs. I was inspired by the founders' stories when discussing their paths to success.
I highly recommend this book for car enthusiasts.
