Cold Steel

Authors: Tim Bouquet and Byron Ousey

Cold Steel is a gripping story of the bitter industry takeover battle between the two largest steel-producers in 2006. It is an account of the total market domination battle - which sent shockwaves through the political corridors of Europe, enriched 30 hedge funds and transformed the global steel industry.

What they say:

"A rare, insider's account of lots of people making millions... The book reads like a thriller, with each side trying to rope in other steel companies on both sides of the Atlantic as allies... As this book shows, money and business logic prevailed in the end over politics and protection."

-- The Economist
