In A Man and His Mountain, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Edward Humes chronicles the life of Jess Stonestreet Jackson, the self-made billionaire behind the Kendall-Jackson wine empire. The narrative dives into Jackson's journey from obscurity to becoming a pioneering figure in California's wine industry, highlighting his innovative spirit, competitive nature, and flair for horseracing. Through his daring decisions—often met with skepticism before being widely admired—Jackson not only built a thriving legacy but also reshaped entire industries, leaving an enduring impact even after his passing in 2011.
