About the Author
In 1948, David Ogilvy founded the agency that would become Ogilvy & Mather. Starting with no clients and a staff of two, he built his company into one of the eight largest advertising networks in the world. He wrote three books about the basic principles of modern advertising: Confessions of an Advertising Man, Blood, Brains & Beer and Ogilvy on Advertising. Sadly, he died in 1999.

The Best Book Written on Advertising
David Ogilvy is one of the best advertising men this past century has ever seen. He combines his knowledge and passion with strict guidlines which he has learned and accepted and that are still applicable today. I had borrowed the book from a previous employer when I first started working in Advertising, as soon as I could I bought my own copy and have read the book thrice so far; I am currently summarizing it for future reference.

David Ogilvy is my agency's master.
