The book "Barbarians at the Gate" is probably the best business story ever told. It’s a riveting account of the leveraged buyout of the tobacco and food giant RJR Nabisco in the late 1980s,
The story gives a great insight into what exactly leveraged buyouts are.
We learn how Henry Kravis and his cousin George Roberts formed the legendary LBO firm KKR.
We see how banks and LBO firms manage to profit handsomely even when deals go bad.
And we see how industry titans end up playing second fiddle when they open their doors to the sharks on wall street.
It’s full of drama, rivalries, big ego’s and lots and lots of money and we hope you enjoy it.
