"Brett Cole's book M&A Titans is an interesting and informative read, both for insiders in the M&A world as well as those just curious to know something more about this intersection of finance, law, and business. Having done deals, some successful, some not, with all eleven, I can say that, in my judgment, he accurately and objectively catches their personalities, strengths, weaknesses, and many of their most challenging experiences."
--Sam Butler, retired presiding partner of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP
"There are few books that explain the investment banking world. This is one of the best. The deals and personal lives of the M&A bankers reads like an exciting novel."
--Sandy Robertson, founding partner of Francisco Partners, and founder and former chairman of Robertson, Stephens & Co.
"A fascinating description of the talented, driven, and obsessive individuals who created what has become the current mergers and acquisition infrastructure in the United States and abroad."
--Steve Waters, Managing Partner of Compass Advisors, and former cohead of merger departments at Lehman Brothers and Morgan Stanley
"M&A Titans is an engrossing history of the most prominent M&A practitioners. Pithy, full of stories and insights, it is an entertaining account of Wall Street's deal making worlds."
--Bill Hambrecht, cofounder of Hambrecht & Quist, and founder and chairman of WR Hambrecht + Co.
