A book written by a financial journalist giving an insider view into the reasons for the financial collapse of companies, offering the reader the opportunity to learn from history's mistakes.

The publication is also the first ever history of corporate collapses in Australia, from the first bank closure in the 1820s through the recession of the 1840s, 1890s, 1920s and 1970s.
