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.
