The life of Arnold Ziff is the story of one of Yorkshire's most
successful businessmen. He floated his property company at the
height of the post-war property boom, making him a fortune. His
triumphant takeover of Barratts provided the backbone for one of
today's few remaining independent retail shoe businesses, and
through the development of the Merrion Centre he played a pivotal
role in the post-war revival and redevelopment of Leeds. He never
forgot the debt he and his family owed to Leeds, and the gifts
stemming from his gratitude touched many of its institutions and
inhabitants. He could be a difficult man, but he was also charming
and generous. His family was all-important, and this included not
just relatives but also those whom he dealt with in his many other
activities. Above all, it is his humanity which shines throughout
this book.
