Thanks Frank - that was close - I went to Amazon and "The Maverick and
His Machine: Thomas Watson, Sr. and the Making of IBM" appeared as a
book you buy together as package with the one you suggested.
Thanks for the tip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am trying to identify a book that I want to get.
My vague recollection is that it was about IBM or IBM Blue and may
have been about the history of IBM or one of its owners/directors.
I vaguely recall the front cover had a man standing in it.
You may be remembering _Father, Son & Co.: My Life at IBM and Beyond_ by
Thomas J. Watson Jr. and Peter Petre. Searching eBay for "Father Son
Co." will get you some pictures.
