About the book

The long-hidden history of how the corrupt Wall Street investment banks of the 1960s got an outrageous taxpayer-funded bailout, setting the precedent for the bailouts of the 2008 Financial Crisis - and the next Wall Street bailout. A story of corruption and financial malfeasance, it unfolds throughout the tumultuous 1960s, during the administrations of Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon with a surprising cast of famous and infamous characters playing roles: Abbie Hoffman, Roy Cohn, Ross Perot, Donald Regan, Michael Bloomberg, Felix Rohaytn, Sandy Weill, Ken Langone, and many others.
