About the book
Losing My Virginity is the autobiography of British businessman Richard Branson, who wrote it with help from Edward Whitley. It opens with a prologue set during a balloon journey meant to circle the globe, flying above the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. Twenty-eight chapters then follow Branson through his first 43 years, tracing his path as an entrepreneur. The narrative stops in January 1993, and a brief epilogue sums up later ventures, among them a cola brand, a financial services company and a bid to operate the national lottery.
