"George Zimmer revolutionized the men's garment industry when he opened the Men's Wearhouse. From a single store, he grew the company into the world's largest men's specialty retailer. Millions of Americans knew him by his trademark commercial pitch: "I guarantee it." At the height of his success, George suffered a shocking ouster orchestrated by his hand-picked board of directors. Now, George returns to tell his story, from his upbringing in Scarsdale, New York, to his roll through the sixties, to his creation of the Men's Wearhouse, where he established an early model of what later came to be called stakeholder capitalism. George shows how he played a key role in the marijuana legalization movement, how he embraced the internet and scored again with a new online tuxedo-rental venture, and how an entrepreneur with soul and heart and an eye toward the future can never be sidelined"-- Provided by publisher
