The Agnelli family story began with the courage and intuition of entrepreneur Giovanni. In 1899, he founded Fiat, an automobile manufacturer that would forever shape the lives of his descendants. Soon, the clan's assets included Juventus football club, Italy's leading newspaper, La Stampa, and the Ferrari automaker. The family's influence extended from factories in Turin to European palaces and cabinets—their power and fame knew no bounds.

But this book is not only about business success, brilliant management decisions, and risky deals. It is a behind-the-scenes look at Italy's most powerful dynasty: dynastic marriages and scandalous love affairs, family tragedies and losses, mental breakdowns, and the ruthless struggle for the legacy of the "Italian crown."

"Driving an Empire" is a saga about six generations who not only built an automobile empire but also subjugated the country's politics and economy. But at what cost.
