Book Reviews of Valley Boy: The Education of Tom Perkins

Book Review: great read! amazing story!
Summary: 5 Stars

So I read Mines Bigger by David Kaplan and was interested to read more about Mr Perkins, so I found Valley Boy and read it. I am truly interested in Tom's story and business touch. Its been inspirational reading for me and I felt a connection with the boating and yachting stories as I share the same hobbies and interests like cars, etc. I highly recommend the book to anyone! Also go online and google (a KP start) either Tom Perkins or his yacht the Maltesse Falcon. There are a couple great videos out there on you tube, etc. to help sum anything up. If you still read the amazon reviews as you said in an interview, Thanks Tom! Great Book and Great Story! But why did you sell the Falcon?
