The inside jacket says:
" This is the story of my father and myself, of my years alone at IBM's helm, of what I've done since leaving the company.
Father and I played out our rivalry and our love for each other in the great American business that he created.
I never declared myself the winner in the contest between us, but I hope I was successful enough that people could say I was the worthy son of a worthy father. "

" In the course of sixty years, Thomas J. Watson Sr. and his son, Thomas J. Watson Jr., together built the colossus that is IBM, one of the largest and most profitable business enterprises on earth.
This is their story: a riveting and revealing account of two men who loved each other- and fought each other- with a terrible fierceness.
The father rose from a penniless sewing-machine salesman to confidant of presidents; one of America's great entrepreneurs, he was a selling genius who gave the world the motto THINK.
But it was Thomas J. Watson Jr. who put IBM into computers, leading the company through the longest and most spectacular burst of growth in business history.
Under Tom Watson Jr., IBM gave birth to the computer age and came to embody the very idea and ideal of the modern corporation. "
