Highly Confident: The Crime and Punishment of Michael Milken

Rating:
Summary: Solid Job by Author
Review: This book details the business career of Milken, the rise to the top and then the fall to prison. The book has a fair amount of rather interesting tabloid type information of his business operation, his life style and his take home pay - so much money it is almost sickening. The author also takes us through how he got caught, what the charges were, the trail and the prison time. We also get some information on Milken after jail. Overall you can tell the bias of the author in that he obviously views Milken in high regard and has not one nice thing to say about the government attorneys. The book is well written and interesting, if not bias. There is some new information here and if you are interested in the period or the man then this is a book you should read.
