Dead Bank Walking is a stunningly candid portrait of the historic merger between Security Pacific and Bank of America, a combining of two giants that set in motion the fever of banking marriages we now witness. This book not only answers the Who, What and Why of this mega-merger, but stand alone as an object lesson on all mergers. It evokes the humor and frantic chaos surrounding a deal that is still regarded as either a brilliant coup or a tragic swan song to banking sovereignty and independence.Smith, Robert H. is the author of 'Dead Bank Walking One Gutsy Bank's Struggle for Survival and the Merger That Changed Banking Forever' with ISBN 9781886939332 and ISBN 1886939330.
