Behind the Wheel of an Empire. The History and Secrets of the Most Powerful Dynasty of Italy
The history of the Agnelli family began with the courage and intuition of entrepreneur Giovanni. In 1899, he founded Fiat — a car factory, forever linking the fate of his descendants with it. Soon, the clan's assets included the football... club Juventus, Italy's main newspaper La Stampa, and the car manufacturer Ferrari. The family's influence extended from factories in Turin to palaces in Europe and the offices of ministers — their power and glory knew no bounds.
This book is not only about business success, brilliant management decisions, and risky deals. It is a glimpse behind the scenes of Italy's most powerful dynasty: dynastic marriages and scandalous love affairs, family tragedies and losses, mental breakdowns and a ruthless struggle for the legacy of the "Italian crown".
"Behind the Wheel of an Empire" is a saga of six generations who not only built an automotive empire but also subjugated the politics and economy of the country. But at what cost.
