Lords of Finance: The Bankers Who Broke the World (Pulitzer Prize Winner)
Liaquat Ahamed@ThomasWLamont America’s Bank by Roger Lowenstein and Lords of Finance by Liaquat Ahamed are both great and fit that bill. The Caesars Palace Coup kinda does, too. Non-finance but Shoe Dog by Phil Knight is fantastic. The Economists Hour by Binyamin Applebaum sounds similar but haven’t read it.
