Warren Buffett: Read All About Him – By Jason Zweig

Thanks to Shai for passing this along.

This fall, two more books on Warren Buffett come out.

The first, Tap Dancing to Work (Portfolio/Penguin), is a compilation of more than 80 articles about (and several by) Buffett. It’s edited by Carol Loomis, who has worked at Fortune magazine for more than half a century. Loomis knows Buffett as well as anyone – as one of his closest friends, a shareholder in Berkshire Hathaway, a fellow bridge player and the pro-bono editor of his brilliantly written annual letters to shareholders.

The second book, The Oracle Speaks: Warren Buffett in His Own Words (Agate Publishing), is a compilation of brief quotations from Buffett.

The compiler, David Andrews, a staff editor at the book’s publisher, has done a fine job of rounding up pithy, clever, memorable remarks by Buffett from an impressively wide variety of sources – including speeches, television appearances, government testimony, private lectures to university students and articles from many media outlets besides Fortune, even the Israeli newspaper Ha’aretz.
