520 8 |a Annotation.  |b "Alec Benn offers a look at America's investment community at a time of changes so profound that their impact and implications are still with us. Benn's book is based not on public relations handouts, but on frank, revealing talks with people who actually participated in the events of those tumultuous seven years, official oral histories (hitherto concealed), and his own observations."--BOOK JACKET.
