Hi Sloopy<br /><br />Try this one<br />called Evinrude, Johnson And The Legend of OMC<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/09 45903103/qid=1059622363/sr=1-8/ref=sr_1_8/104-0022868-0883175?v=glance&s=books<br /><br />Also "Iron Fist" is a great read regarding the early days of Mercury ( DJohns19 put me on to this last year )<br /><br /> http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t..._rhh_a_1/104-0022868-0883175?v=glance&s=books

Re: books about OMC

Sloopy,<br /><br />You will enjoy both books immensly.<br /><br />The OMC book is a real look at a corporate industrial giant throughout much of the last century.<br /><br />The "Iron Fist" book takes a close look at the life of Carl Kiekheafer, the founder of Mercury Marine, and his brand of corporate management.<br /><br />Your library may have them or can get them.
