520    "In 1951, Alvin Cramer Segal, at the age of eighteen and 
       without a formal education, started working in the factory
       of his stepfather's company in Montreal. Today he is the 
       chairman and chief executive officer of the largest 
       supplier of men's fine-tailored clothing in North America,
       and is considered an outstanding business and community 
       leader, at the forefront of policy-making in Canada's 
       apparel industry, with commitments to philanthropic 
       efforts that echo his business accomplishments. In My 
       Peerless Story, Segal recounts how he learned business 
       from the collar down and from the ground up, transforming 
       a family-owned business into one that would eventually 
       come to license labels such as Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein,
       and Michael Kors. Sharing anecdotes and personal 
       experiences, Segal describes the history of garment 
       manufacturing in Montreal and his intuitive strategies to 
       leverage growth by improving fabrics, and adapting to 
       innovative changes in the industry, eventually becoming 
       the main inventory source of designer label suits to major
       department stores. Written from the heart, not a as 
       handbook but rather as the story of a well-suited business
       career, My Peerless Story nonetheless includes relevant 
       business lessons for the aspiring and inspired."--
