Has anyone read "Pioneer Publisher: The Story of Krause Publications"?

Has anyone read this book? Krause has been a driving force behind numismatic publications, and I came across this book. It would seem interesting to read how the company grew and what took place when it was just started. Does anyone know if this is an interesting read or worthwhile to get? Thanks.

    There are actually three completely different histories of Krause Publications.
    The first book was published in 1992 and is "Just Plain Chet - The History of Krause Publications" by Michael J. Goc.
    In 1997 Bob Lemke wrote "A Building Is Only As Good As Its Foundation - Krause Publications' Traditions and Philosophies at 45 Years".
    The final book was published in 2001 and was written by Arlyn G. Sieber, "Pioneer Publisher - The Story of Krause Publications' First 50 Years".

    All three are quite interesting and represent a different way of looking at Krause history.

    All glory is fleeting.
