Focused on HBS's most successful class-the fabled '49ers, \"the Class the dollars fell on\"-the book combines boardroom drama with astute social commentary. More than just a book about business, The Big Time tells the story of the American spirit at the height of a golden age. Rich in compelling anecdotes and unforgettable characters, this fascinating group portrait-named one of Business Week's 10 Best upon its initial release in 1986--remains a seminal study of American privilege and power, ingenuity and hubris, and an essential text for understanding our own times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLaurence Shames is a novelist, journalist, essayist, and occasional ghostwriter who has written more than twenty books and hundreds of magazine articles.
