For forty-one years, George Zimmer forged a relationship with American men who wanted to like the way they looked without getting too fussy about it.
He made them a promise that came straight from the shoulder: "I guarantee it," he said, and it was ironclad. By the millions, customers walked into the Men's Wearhouse stores in all fifty states and Canada, where they received "quality, service, and a good price," where they bought suits, ties, sports coats, and slacks by the tens of billions of dollars.
Then a backstabbing -- the handpicked board of directors fired Zimmer from the company he had created and developed into the most successful men's specialty store in world history.
Eight years later, Zimmer is back to tell his story: a man raised by a prosperous and loving family, a fun-loving son of the sixties, a merchant, an entrepreneur, a pitchman for the ages.
