KING OF CAPITAL - DAVID CAREY JOHN E MORRIS KAR...

The story of Steve Schwarzman  Blackstone  and a financial revolution  King of Capital is the
greatest untold success story on Wall Street. In King of Capital  David Carey and John Morris
show how Blackstone (and other private equity firms) transformed themselves from gamblers 
hostile-takeover artists  and 'barbarians at the gate' into disciplined  risk-conscious
investors while the financial establishment-banks and investment bankers such as Citigroup 
Bear Stearns  Lehman  UBS  Goldman Sachs  Merrill Lynch  Morgan Stanley-were recklessly
assuming risks  leveraging up to astronomical levels and driving the economy to the brink of
disaster. Now  not only have Blackstone and a small coterie of competitors wrested control of
corporations around the globe  but they have emerged as a major force on Wall Street 
challenging the likes of Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley for dominance. Insightful and
hard-hitting  filled with never-before-revealed details about the workings of a heretofore
secretive company that was the personal fiefdom of Schwarzman and Peter Peterson  King of
Capital shows how Blackstone and private equity will drive the economy and provide a model for
how financing will work in the years to come.
