Some useful info, but mostly pointless

Lots of repetition, no real analysis. A few of the case studies were interesting but most were just regurgitated basic facts that gave really little insight. The voiceover was relatively poor too. Overall a waste of money.

A very useful book.

Top ten. Absolutely fantastic book with a lot of very useful info. I keep getting back to this book every time I need to make sure I know what the moat is and means for any company.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I was impressed by specification of all examples of moats.

Have you listened to any of Jeffrey A. Hering’s other performances? How does this one compare?

No, I didn't. It was very good.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I love this book for enormous contribution to anyone interesting in understanding what a moat means for the companies .

Any additional comments?

Thank you .
