This book by Randall E. Stross came up once on Tim Ferriss in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Tim Ferriss. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
In eBOYS, Randall Stross takes us behind the scenes and inside the heads of the gutsy entrepreneurs who are financing the hottest businesses on the Web. The six tall men who started Benchmark, Silicon Valley's most exciting venture capital firm, put themselves at the cutting edge of the new economy by backing billion dollar start-ups like eBay and Webvan. The risks were enormous--but the rewards have proven to be staggering.
“a book was recommended to me called E Boys. it was incredibly inspirational. Super entertaining and so entertaining.”— Tim Ferriss
