Handsome first edition of this visionary finance figure's first book, "a volume of beautifully crafted essays, which examine the impulses, events, and interests that have shaped a first-class mind." He boldly inscribes and signs the title page in black fineline: "For Bob Malott, who has / been known to take a risk or two! / Walt B Wriston." Wriston (1919-2005) was a legendary banker and innovative chairman/CEO of Citicorp, in his day the best known commercial banker in the country. Robert Malott (1926-2018) was a noted Chicago business leader, CEO of FMC Corporation, Republican politico and philanthropist. A lovely presentation copy.
