About this title

Synopsis

Philip Green, owner of, among much else, British Home Stores, reached billionaire status faster than anyone else in British history, and today he is reckoned to be the country's fourth richest citizen. This is the first biography of a man whose aggressive business tactics and brash lifestyle have transformed the staid image of British retailing.
