Cold Steel

Just thought I'd share this. Reading this book called "Cold Steel" right now, sort of like Barbarians but lighter and reads more like a fast paced thriller. Finding it difficult to put it down. I searched around WSO and didn't find any interest/comments/topics/recommendations on the book.

Cold Steel: Lakshmi Mittal and the Multi-billion-dollar Battle for a Global Empire

Recommend it to anyone interested in M&A. Very interesting stuff.
