Rezension zu „City of London “
"The story is never dry, for Kynaston tells it as human drama... This is economic history at its most glittering." -- Simon Jenkins The Times "A work of breathtaking scope and accomplishment" -- D.J. Taylor Independent "Magisterial... Kynaston is compulsively readable on all the great City scandals." -- William Keegan Observer "No one knows more secrets about the City of London than David Kynaston... about what goes on behind the copper-plate facades of old City firms, or in the boardrooms of the gleaming glasshouses. Kynaston is the historian of the City." -- Peter Oborne Sunday Express "Everyone should read David Kynaston's riveting history of the City: a subject too important to be left to the bankers." -- John Lanchester, Author Of Whoops! Why Everyone Owes Everyone And No One Can Pay
