Anton Rupert: The Life of a Business Icon – Ebbe Dommisse (Updated)

Ebbe Dommisse

Anton Rupert is a legend of the 20th century. Here we have Rupert's story, as complete, I suspect, as we will ever have it. Not only the story of fanatical perseverance, but also of someone with exceptional vision.

This book contains many revelations, essential to understanding Rupert, e.g. not only his clashes with Verwoerd, but also ongoing friction with the Nationalist government, the bitter battle with the Sanlam bosses and his quarrel with Louis Luyt.' - Danie Van Niekerk
