Belly Up, the Story of Penn Square Bank, by Philip Zweig, Ballentine Books, 1986
Review: Wall Street Journal reporter Zweig details how the Oklahoma City Penn Square Bank went under. PW recommended Mark Singer’s account of the same events in Funny Money unless “the reader’s appetite is for unembellished facts, presented in plain prose, of events that are of themselves exciting.”
