Damaged Goods

Book • 2018
Sir Philip Green was once hailed one of Britain's best businessmen.

But the retail magnate's reputation came crashing down when Oliver Shah, a Sunday Times journalist, uncovered the methods Green used to amass his gigantic offshore fortune, and the desperation that drove his doomed BHS deal.
