Vol. 13, Issue 3 Wriston Walter Wriston, Citibank, and the Rise and Fall of American Financial Supremacy By: Phillip L. Zweig 960 pp. Crown Business 1996 Review by: Lydia Morris Brown

Zweig’s account of Walter Wriston ‘s career is both absorbing and compelling. Indeed, to study the success and failures of Wriston and Citibank, as they are chronicled in this remarkable tour de force, is in many ways to study the successes and failures of post-World War II banking, business, and management. Wriston is an illuminating tutorial on American dollar diplomacy during the past 50 years and the promulgation of free-market principles in Washington and around the world. Thus, the book is essential reading for anyone in banking, financial services, and public policy. It is a critical appraisal of Wriston’s career and the world-renowned institution he led for 17 years.
