That book is a great read. Terrific look not just inside Benchmark but the late 90s VC world and some of the big startups from back then. One of my favorite bits is the aforementioned sell job to get Meg Whitman to join (I believe Meg doesn't the credit she deserves for taking eBay from a tiny startup to a huge business). I remember laughing out loud when the Benchmark folks discuss Meg's kid having a crush on one of the VC's kids. Every little bit counted and they pulled out all the stops.
