Krátky popis
A dramatic, gripping account of the rise and fall of the notorious
business tycoon Robert Maxwell from the acclaimed author of A Very
English Scandal - available for pre-order now In February 1991,
Robert Maxwell made a triumphant entrance into Manhattan harbour on
board his yacht, the Lady Ghislaine. He had come to complete his
purchase of the ailing New York Daily News. Crowds lined the
quayside to watch his arrival.Taxi drivers stopped their cabs to
shake his hand, children asked for his autograph and when Maxwell
went to dine in the most fashionable Chinese restaurant in
Manhattan, all the diners gave him a standing ovation. 10 months
later, he disappeared off the same yacht and several hours later
was found dead in the water. Within a few days, Maxwell was being
reviled as the embodiment of greed and unscrupulousness.No one had
ever fallen so far and so quickly. What went so wrong? How did a
man who had once laid such store on the importance of ethics and
good behaviour become reduced to a bloated, amoral wreck?'Preston
