About the book
A monumental account of the largest corporate acquisition in history at the time: the purchase of RJR Nabisco by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts in 1988. Bryan Burrough and John Helyar reconstruct the fierce negotiation, the colliding egos, and the strategies that marked the peak of the 1980s buyout boom. A deep dive into corporate greed, personal ambition, and the transformation of American capitalism.
