Synopsis

From his earliest days buying Canada’s first FM radio station, CHFI, to developing Rogers Cable, Media and Wireless, Relentless tells the true story of the man who stood alone among Canada’s all-time business giants. Relentless is the amazing story of a young man who overcame the early death of his father—which cost the family a burgeoning radio business—to establish and nurture one of the biggest communications companies in North America.

Relentless, published mere weeks before Ted Rogers’ death in late 2008, is filled with back-room deals, on-air battles and the often outrageous exploits of an extraordinary entrepreneur. The book made headlines coast to coast when it was first published, and Rogers’ passing spawned tributes in newspapers, as well as on radio, Tv and the Internet, in Canada and around the world.
