The Master plys his trade:

Ogilvy is a master and this book is an insightful look into the world of advertising.

the story of a remarkable career in display advertising:

Chapter 2 is Worth it Alone:

Overall the book goes on to some more specific topics, like how to run an ad agency, which is also a good primer into what it is like in the boiler room environment that an agency career can be.more info
