Ben Mezrich – The Accidental Billionaires [The Social Network] – First US Edition
£75.00
A first edition, first printing of ‘The Accidental Billionaires’ by Ben Mezrich published by Doubleday in 2009. A fine book without inscriptions, in a near fine unclipped wrapper.
The book tells the dramatic origin story of Facebook. The book focuses on Mark Zuckerberg and Eduardo Saverin, Harvard students who co-founded the social media platform, which became a global phenomenon. Mezrich explores themes of ambition, betrayal, and the rapid rise of tech entrepreneurship. The narrative portrays Zuckerberg’s genius and controversial actions, including his strained relationship with Saverin and legal battles with the Winklevoss twins. While the book is based on real events, it takes a dramatised approach, focusing on the personal conflicts that shaped Facebook’s meteoric rise.
