The Richest Man Who Ever Lived

What a fascinating book! Jacob Fugger was a really interesting person, and the book was well written account of his life and how he built up the family enterprise to millions of florins, making it the biggest business in the whole world in the 16th century. While at it, he invented lots of things we take for granted in business now, and was a major player in many events of the era (Luther's escapades, Habsburgs, Holy Roman Empire...). Fascinating!
