  • "Barbarians at the Gate has been called one of the most influential business books of all time -- the definitive account of the largest takeover in Wall Street history. Bryan Burrough and John Helyar's gripping account of the frenzy that overtook Wall Street in October and November of 1988 is the story of deal makers and publicity flaks, of strategy meetings and society dinners, of boardrooms and bedrooms -- giving us not only a detailed look at how financial operations at the highest levels are conducted but also a richly textured social history of wealth at the twilight of the Reagan era. Barbarians at the Gate -- a business narrative classic -- is must reading for everyone interested in the way today's world really works."@en
  • "Burrough (special correspondent, Vanity Fair) and Helyar (columnist, Bloomberg News) recount the frenzied two months, October and November 1988, during which RJR Nabisco (producer of Oreos and Camels) fell victim to the ruthless cutthroat style of American finance in the 1980s. The authors, reporters for the Wall Street Journal at the time, provided an exemplary example of investigative journalism in their tale of greed and glory, secret deals, and corporate sparring that is both informative and as readable as a well-written fast-paced novel. This edition contains a new afterword commissioned for the 20th anniversary of the story in which the authors revisit the winners and losers and trace the fallout of the deal."
  • ""Barbarians at the Gate" is the classic account of the defining takeover in Wall Street merger history. The authors' gripping record of the frenzy that overtook Wall Street, in fall of 1988, gives a richly textured social history of wealth at the twilight of the Reagan era."
