A very well put insight of Wall Street in the 1980s, specifically with how the culture and communication between the traders operated. I'd recommend to anyone who is interested in Wall Street and or how the people behave in there.

It was a little slow in the middle but once he started talking more about his own experiences I couldn't stop reading.
God what a whirlwind ride through investment banking in the 80s - certainly gave me some insight into the subprime mortgage crises from the last decade.
