8vo. SIGNED by Terry Corcoran to title page. Red cloth boards, gilt lettering to spine. 384 p.p. Bruising to spine ends. Dust jacket is chafed to cover, a few bumps, else fine. The true story of the rise and fall of three men - Larry Rosenberg, William Player, and Andrew Markle - who almost pulled off the greatest real estate deal in Canadian history: the $500-million sale of 10,931 Cadillac Fairview apartments to Arab investors that created an instant profit of $230 million. Two months after the sale their profits were gone and their business empires - including the Crown, Greymac, and Seaway trust companies, had been taken over or were being pushed into receivership by the Ontario government in one of the most arbitrary exercises of government power in Canadian history. An absorbing and important book. Seller Inventory # 003967
