Description
“One of the crucial finest, most compelling accounts of what happened to corporate The usa and Wall Street within the 1980’s.”
—New York Times Book Review
A #1 New York Times bestseller and arguably the most productive business narrative ever written, Barbarians on the Gate is the classic account of the fall of RJR Nabisco. A long-lasting masterpiece of investigative journalism by Bryan Burrough and John Helyar, it features a new afterword by the authors that brings this remarkable story of greed and double-dealings up to the moment twenty years after the famed deal. The Los Angeles Times calls Barbarians on the Gate, “Superlative.” The Chicago Tribune raves, “It’s hard to consider a better story…and it’s hard to consider a better account.” And in an era of spectacular business crashes and federal bailouts, it still stands as a valuable cautionary tale that should be heeded.
