Interesting as far as it goes

Interesting reading for those who have invested in Anthony Bolton's Fidelity funds this book gives a brief career history and attempts to explain his success. He's a contrarian, does not follow the latest fads, relys on hard work and exhaustive research, and... er thats' it. Despite being a slim volume there is a lot of padding. In one chapter Anthony Bolton tells his story in his own words thus repeating information given by the author in a preceding chapter. I would have liked more stories about the companies he invested in. The ITV controversy is analyzed but surely in such a long and distinguished career there are more such stories that would interest the reader. As it is full of praise for Fidelity I think they should give it away free to their investors. Although it kept me absorbed for an hour or so, if you follow Anthony Boltons principle of 'searching for value', you can't really rate this one a buy.

Worth the price for the chapter written by Anthony Bolton. The rest of the book (written by the author) is interesting but not particularly educational. Would thoroughly recommend though.
