FoxTales: Behind the Scenes at Fox Software (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780983965541)

Much has been written about the battles that rage between software companies over market share. FoxTales is the story of one such battle, told from the perspective of a foot soldier. My perspective. When I started with Fox Software, it was a company of barely thirty people. It shared space in a small bank building on the edge of Ohio's farm country. It was a quaint, family run business, and its product, FoxBASE+, was a niche player. The next four years brought many surprises: lawsuits, buyouts, off-the-wall management, and even a flying book or two. Things no college course could prepare you for. And to think, I could've been a farmer. ** This revised tenth anniversary edition contains a new foreword by Microsoft Software Engineer David Heindel and an additional note from the author **
