Excerpt from The Life and Death of Ivar Kreuger Such a book as this can not but risk the danger of damaging peoples' feelings, and I am well aware that I may have written things which can not hope to please a certain section of the public. The only defense against having tread upon peoples' toes is that it has been done only when it has been utterly necessary to the work in hand, which has been the task of telling the Kreuger story objectively, without the exclusion of any facts simply because they are unpleasant.
