| Sumario: | This article reports on the lack of offers to publish the autobiography of Sir Alan Sugar. Sugar is the founder of the firm Amstrad and stars on the United Kingdom version of the reality television show "The Apprentice." The book was delivered to publishers and garnered proposals of about £500,000. But then Sugar withdrew his book and said he would not accept any offer less than. £1 million. Publishers find that Sugar is somewhat of a contentious character and are not ready to deal with his behavior. |
