“One of the finest, most compelling accounts of what happened to corporate America and Wall Street in the 1980’s.” —New York Times Book ReviewA #1 New York Times bestseller and arguably the best business narrative ever written, Barbarians at the Gate is the classic account of the fall of RJR Nabisco. An enduring masterpiece of investigative journalism by Bryan Burrough and John Helyar, it includes a new afterword by the authors that brings this remarkable story of greed and double-dealings up to date twenty years after the famed deal. The Los Angeles Times calls Barbarians at the Gate, “Superlative.” The Chicago Tribune raves, “It’s hard to imagine a better story...and it’s hard to imagine a better account.” And in an era of spectacular business crashes and federal bailouts, it still stands as a valuable cautionary tale that must be heeded.The fight to control RJR Nabisco during October and November of 1988 was more than just the largest takeover in Wall Street history. Marked by brazen displays of ego not seen in American business for decades, it became the high point of a new gilded age, and its repercussions are still being felt. The ultimate story of greed and glory, Barbarians at the Gate is the gripping account of these two frenzied months, of deal makers and publicity flaks, of an old-line industrial powerhouse that became the victim of the ruthless and rapacious style of finance in the 1980s. Written with the bravado of a novel and researched with the diligence of a sweeping cultural history, here is the unforgettable story of the takeover in all its brutality.“It’s hard to imagine a better story...and it’s hard to imagine a better account” — Chicago Tribune“A superlative book...steadily builds suspense until the very end.” — Los Angeles Times Book Review“The fascinating inside story of the largest corporate takeover in American history… It reads like a novel.” — Today Show“The most piercing and compelling narrative of a deal to date.” — Boston Globe“Impressive qualities... delicious scenes... a cinematic yet extraordinarily careful book.” — Ken Auletta, New York Daily NewsAn updated edition with a new introduction by Bryan Burrough, Barbarians at the Gate offers the definitive account of the largest takeover in Wall Street history. Burrough and Helyar’s gripping record of the frenzy that overtook Wall Street in October and November 1988 is the story of deal makers and publicity flaks, of strategy meetings and society dinners, of boardrooms and bedrooms, giving students an almost unprecedented, detailed look at how financial operations at the highest levels are conducted. “The finest account of what happened to corporate Amer
