There are stories that defy logic. Stories that, hidden behind the scenes of success, reveal secrets, decisions and coincidences so improbable that they seem to be taken from a fiction novel. This book brings together true accounts of individuals and organizations who reached the summit, but whose path was marked by enigmas, mysteries and inexplicable facts. We've titled it Secrets of Pomp, because behind all the pomp and celebration, there's often a secret that changes everything.
