About This Item
Little, Brown and Company, London, 1996. First Edition. Softcover. Good Condition. Illustrator: Photographic. preface by author, list of abbreviations, glossary and credit. The text is illustrated with two inserts, of eight pages each, of black-and-white photography. Colour photographic card cover with white and gilt coloured titles to the front panel and backstrip. In 1995 one of Britain's oldest merchant banks, Barings, collapsed. The cause? Apparently the trading activities of one man – the author. For, as the rear panel blurb states "... The story he has to tell surpasses the peaks of imagination of the most creative novelist: the candid, compelling confession of a pure gambler who found himself sucked into a spiral of terrifying loss." Nice clean copy, no damage, no annotations, only age toning of the pages edges. Size: Trade Paperback. 273, [1] pages,. Please refer to accompanying picture (s). Illustrator: Photographic.
