Very good condition. "The extraordinary life story of South African tycoon and philanthropist, Dr Anton Rupert, told for the first time in full. It is the story of a Karoo boy who grew up during the Depression, struggled to find enough money to study science, and then made good as a businessman, spectacularly so, reaching the Forbes list of the 500 wealthiest people worldwide. Unlike Harry Oppenheimer, Rupert was no heir; neither did he make his millions from mining. His Rembrandt group of manufacturers became known across the globe, owning brands like Cartier, Dunhill, Rothmans and Montblanc. Within a few decades, a family dynasty was built, making the Ruperts, next to the Oppenheimers, the richest family in Africa. . This compelling book, based on extensive international research and many hours of conversation with Rupert, his family and people who know him well, will generate wide interest.".…

"Sir David Graaff's unique South African story begins as a poor shepherd on a farm in Villiersdorp. Like a fairytale, a well-off relative took David to Cape Town to work at his butchery. Within a few years, David was not only in charge of the butchery, but became the pioneer of large-scale refrigeration in South Africa. His business acumen served him well as a politician and he became a member of the first cabinet of South Africa after Unification in 1910 - a confidant of the first two premiers, Generals Louis Botha and Jan Smuts. As a bachelor in his fifties, the British monarchy awarded him the hereditary title of baronet. Soon after David married the young daughter of the minister of the Groote Kerk in Cape Town, and started a family that included the politician Sir De Villiers Graaff.".…
