A sharp, insider's account of how Silicon Valley and technology start-ups really work -- the sharks, networks, money, and geniuses that have changed the world.

Charles Ferguson started Vermeer Technologies and turned his very big idea into FrontPage, the first software product for creating and managing a website. Twenty months after starting the company, he sold it to Microsoft for $133 million.

High Stakes, No Prisoners is a personal account of what it takes to win in the Internet industry, where any speed below warp nine doesn't get you to takeoff. From securing venture capital to getting the strategy and the technology right, to working with the quirkiest, smartest people on the planet -- the start-up story has never been told with such depth and honesty.
