From esteemed New Yorker writer Mark Singer comes this cautionary
tale of the Penn Square Bank, the oil and gas broker in an Oklahoma
City shopping mall whose collapse in 1982 staggered America's
banking industry. Recounting the whole spectacular story and its
colorful characters, Singer makes brilliantly (and hilariously)
clear what actually happened and why it had to happen in boom-time
Oklahoma. Nowhere else did money flow in quite the same spontaneous
fashion. " A] tale of wonderful verve" (New York Times), Funny
Money comes to life through Singer's vivid prose and continues to
resonate in today's culture of corporate corruption.
