400 pages of sheer fast paced active entrepreneurship that will keep you gripping. I think in many senses Capt. Gopinath has presented what an ideal entrepreneur should be. A varied experience of being an army officer to a farmer to sericulturist to politician to founding father of low cost airlines in India is a remarkable journey for someone to explore. I think one cannot quite write a summary of the whole book as it is only a summary to someone with such a vast experience that you can only know more when you read it. Very few people you find in life who are not only learned but are highly pragmatic in their approach. I think Capt. Gopinath fits that very well.
A definite read for anyone interested in understanding entrepreneurship and I guess if someone does not have appreciation for such person he should probably not venture into entrepreneurship. At least one book which highlighted or tried to justify some negative publicity that Deccan received than to completely ignore it in some of the other biographies I have read earlier.
