The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon

Amazon made its mark sending new books quickly in nice, smile-embossed boxes. But its visionary founder, Jeff Bezos, wasn't content with being a bookseller.

Brad Stone has been given unprecedented access to Amazon employees, both current and former, to give readers a fly-on-the-wall narrative account of the world's largest online retailer.
