Read a true story of entrepreneurship - "When it'S HIT the Fan: An Entrepreneurial Roller Coaster Ride"
Read the acknowledgements:

'It is all here, the journey from kitchen table, to IPO, to bloody boardroom battles and shutting down her company. Jane tells us her story with a sense of humor, a lot of humility and a welcome dose of honesty. This is a great account of a baby boomers entrepreneurial journey leading to the internet bubble. For those of us that lived through it, this is a nostalgic tale, for those that missed out on those heady days, this book shares the passion, joy, letdowns and valuable lessons that can only be learned by chasing dreams and taking risks.'

'This book has been a while in the making, because it is a very personal journey; to push aside the emotional bruising of the exciting nightmare of entrepreneurship. It has been worth it though, because the author, through her personal story, has been devastatingly honest about how her journey started and progressed. Readers can set aside the dry messages of business planning books and instead learn about the twists and turns in business and how adaptable they have to be to be an entrepreneur.'
