Gregory Zuckerman - THE GREATEST TRADE EVER: The Behind-the-Scenes Story of How John Paulson Defied Wall Street and Made Financial History
at Wellesley Booksmith, 82 Central Street, Wellesley, MA 02481.

Join award-winning financial journalist/author Greg Zuckerman for a timely presentation and discussion about the 2008 financial crash, John Paulson, Goldman Sachs and more, based on his latest book, THE GREATEST TRADE EVER: The Behind-the- Scenes Story of How John Paulson Defied Wall Street and Made Financial History.

In recent weeks, Greg has been interviewed frequently by the media for his perspective on the April 2010 SEC civil suit of securites fraud brought against Goldman Sachs. Don't miss hearing Greg's perspective on the financial market in the light of current events.

Due to limited space, RSVP required: (781) 431- 1160 or events@wellesleybooksmith.com.

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Written by the award-winning reporter who broke the story in The Wall Street Journal, THE GREATEST TRADE EVER: The Behind-the-Scenes Story of How John Paulson Defied Wall Street and Made Financial History by Gregory Zuckerman is a fast-paced, behind- the-scenes tale of how John Paulson outwitted Richard Fuld, Stanley O'Neal and Wall Street's titans to make financial history. Unlike the countless books on how financial markets collapsed, THE GREATEST TRADE EVER is a dramatic tale with a beginning, middle, and end. It tells the story of the housing and financial meltdowns through the lens of one of the few heroes of the debacle. It also examines why investors find it so hard to bet against bubbles, how an outsider could anticipate a collapse that mortgage, real estate, and investing experts missed, and whether there were overlooked reasons the bubble expanded. Lessons of the fast-paced adventure are relevant to the next inevitable financial mania. The book also explores Paulson's latest huge trade: a big gutsy bet on gold.
