Reviewers crown Murder of Lehman best Lehman book and best financial crisis book

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 5, 2009 -- Teitelman continues that Murder of Lehman "presents a more complex and shifting judgment, which is one of the strengths of the book...What it does better than anything else is humanize a firm and its employees in a way that's been rare of late.”

Pete Davis of Capital Gains & Games also singles out "The Murder of Lehman Brothers:" "“This is the only [financial crisis book] that brings Wall Street culture to life and shows how reckless excess was fed by Washington politicians...I'm touting this book not only because it rings true about the Wall Street I know, but because it implicates the Washington political leaders who paved the way for Wall Street's excessive risk taking and predatory lending...I recommend you read The Murder of Lehman Brothers to find out why the financial crisis happened.”
