Paul Erdman is the author of two best-sell-
ing novels about high finance, international
intrigue, sex and money: The Billion Dollar
Sure Thing and The Silver Bears.
His new novel, The Crash of 79, is even
more exciting--a book so real that its plot
reads like today s headlines. The central
figure is that world traveler, playboy, des-
pot, and winter-sports enthusiast His
imperial Majesty the Shah of Iran, whose
grandiose and megalomaniacal dreams,
nurtured in secret and financed by oil
money, engulf the lives of Erdman s char-
acters, each of whom, unknowingly, is con-
tributing to the event that will bring about
the Crash of 79 and the demise of the
industrial West.
Bill Hitchcock, the hero, is a successful
banker, divorced skirtchaser, confirmed
cynic and financial genius. It is Hitchcock
whom the Saudi Arabians pick to manage
their vast hoard of accumulated oil profits
(an estimated 400 billion dollars today)
and to fire a warning shot across the bows
of the Western financial community.
