Losing My Virginity
Losing My Virginity
Richard Branson is a billionaire who wrote and autobiography. That fact alone makes his biography worth reading. Besides this fact though, “Losing My Virginity” is a great book. The book covers nearly fifty years of Branson’s life, starting with his childhood in England and ending shortly after his battle to establish Virgin Airlines. It is definitely worth picking up.
Virgin records, Virgin Music, and various other Virgin businesses are Branson’s creation. In the book he explains his highs and lows and hides very little about himself. Things that many memoir writers might leave out, like his infidelity and legal troubles, are included in the book and one cannot help but respect Branson for that. What is best is how entertaining the book is. Biographies can run the risk of being dry and uninteresting, Branson avoids all of these things.
For anyone who wants to start a business, or who just wants to read a good autobiography, I recommend picking up “Losing My Virginity”. I’ve read it twice.
