What started with a single man seeking opportunity in the new capital city of Des Moines, eventually grew into one of the largest construction firms in the country. Through its 160 year history and four generations of family leadership, the Weitz Company has survived war, the depression and loss. "The book is rich in in lessons about sharing a vision, trusting in family, adapting to change, and planning for an unknowable future. Bill Friedricks has captured the unique culture of the Weitz Company and the qualities of the Weitz family who built one of the nation's great construction companies." - Steve Zumbach, Belin McCormick Law Firm
