The inside story of the U.K.'s most successful bookmaker July 26, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
'Lucky John' is the compelling story of an East End boy who, through determination and ability, rose from tea boy to chairman of William Hill, leading it to become the UKs most successful bookmaker. In this book, John Brown describes how he, with no business training and doing it in his most inimitable style, fought back from redundancy and the financial collapse of parent company Brent Walker to take William Hill and the bookmaking industry to unprecedented levels of prosperity - making him and his management team rich in the process.
