The Big Fix: Inside the S&L Scandal

by James Adams

The inside story of the rash of failures of savings-and-loan institutions in the 1980s, written in a hard-news style by a nine-year veteran of "The Wall Street Journal". This account names the players in this game of monopoly where the money is real, including those of highly-placed figures in government and finance. Documented here is a twisted tale of impotent regulation, financial mismanagement, political manipulation, fraud and outright plunder.
