Abramovich:
The Billionaire from Nowhere, by Dominic Midgley and Chris Hutchins (2004)
THIS is an investigative biography of the Russian rouble machine which follows the maxim 'follow the money' to show how he emerged.
It tells of political intrigues in post-Soviet Russia, the astonishing dash for cash of the new free market entrepreneurs reminiscent of 19th-century America, where the money came from, his decision to buy Chelsea, what club ownership gives him and the long-term implications of his takeover.
