Robert Vesco. Dead?
Did longtime fugitive
Robert L. Vesco elude U.S. even in death?
A provocative and exciting story of greed,
avarice, dishonesty, and betrayal…and a chilling cautionary tale for
all American business people today. |
|
Today's high-flying, high-rolling conglomarateurs
and corporate raiders are a tame lot compared to their immediate
predecessors. The most notorious of these is Robert Vesco, who in 1973
fled the United States accused of looting $250 million from Investors
Overseas Services. Now, in this riveting account, noted author Arthur
Herzog tells the astounding story of this high school dropout from
Detroit, who parlayed cunning, ambition, a brilliant mind, and above
all, other people's gullibility and money into a vast financial empire.

failed to grasp a central theme, whatever that was. Something that made
sense, seemed reasonable.
But,
who were the DOAs?
And
where was he?
