How does the author use foreshadowing in The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook: A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius and Betrayal?

The author uses foreshadowing very successfully in keeping the reader on the edge of his seat. The story of the founding of Facebook is one, like Lincoln's assassination, where the reader already knows the ending. However, the author makes the story entertaining and intriguing from beginning to end. Although the reader basically knows how the story turns out such as the account of how Facebook got to be such a success and the people that made it happen is described in rich detail and in an easy to understand manner. Despite the fact that the subject company is an Internet company and tells the story of a computer geek, Mezrich keeps the tech talk to a minimum. He has turned a techie story into a human drama about the journey of a handful of young men in the creation a billion dollar company.
