"One of the finest, most compelling accounts of what happened to corporate America and Wall Street in the 1980's." --New York Times Book Review A #1&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestseller and arguably the best business narrative ever written,&nbsp;Barbarians at the Gate&nbsp;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&nbsp;Los Angeles Times&nbsp;calls&nbsp;Barbarians at the Gate, "Superlative." The&nbsp;Chicago Tribune&nbsp;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.
