Upcoming Book Releases

I like finding obscure business books, biographies, and well-written historical pieces that read like narratives. I’m also constantly watching upcoming releases that fit these criteria. The list below is in order of release date.

The Demon of Unrest

When I was a senior partner at B2B CFO®, there was a small circle of Erik Larson fans, and we continually shared our favorite titles of this outstanding author.

I will drop everything I’m reading to start The Demon of Unrest when the Kindle version is available on April 30, 2024.

Cash is King

I’ve already started reading an advanced media copy of Cash is King by Peter Kingma. This is not a fluff book with overly simple concepts. I’m enjoying what I’ve read so far and looking forward to visiting with Peter on an upcoming CFO Bookshelf podcast episode.

The book will be released on May 7, 2024.

Love & Whiskey: The Remarkable True Story of Jack Daniel, His Master Distiller Nearest Green, and the Improbable Rise of Uncle Nearest

If you like business history and narrative nonfiction, this title by Fawn Weaver may be up your alley. The release date is June 18, 2024.

Fast Money: The Backroom Deals, Corporate Espionage, and Legendary Power Struggles That Drive Formula One

If I were to pick one of the top narrative non-fiction books based on title/subtitle alone, it would be this one for 2024. The subtitle has hooked me, but I’ll probably wait to buy it until I’ve listened to a few author interviews.

Fast Money will be available on August 24, 2024.
