"Beyond Tallulah: How Sam Wyly Became America's Boldest Big-Time Entrepreneur" by: Dennis Hamilton
This is a ~BRAND NEW~ never read book. Although there is very slight damage in the corner (see picture). There is also a minor stain on the back cover- which you probably can barely see in the picture. The pages are nice, thick, and shiny- with many beautiful colored and black and white pictures, and plenty to read.

(book summary)
At the dawn of the Information Age in 1963, a computer salesman in Texas saw an opportunity where IBM, his former employer, saw only dusty oil camps. This young entrepreneur, who had grown up dirt-poor in rural Louisiana during the Great Depression, staked his young family's livelihood on the notion that computers would help out local businesses- and, quite possibly, revolutionize the way America did business.
