Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Adventure/SuspenseLarge Print Edition* A New York Times Bestseller* A Book-of-the-Month Club Alternate SelectionJeffrey Archer suggests that this bestseller is 80% fact and 20% fiction. But his descriptions of rival media moguls must hit the mark pretty accurately since Kevin Maxwell, son of the late media baron Robert Maxwell, tried to have it banned. In The Fourth Estate we meet Australian Keith Townsend whose sharp mind and cold-hearted business acumen helped forge one of the worlds biggest newspaper empires. His rival is Richard Armstrong, a courageous escapee of Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe. Both Brilliant and determined, here are two men whose quest for influence and power could propel their empires to the brink of financial disaster and catastrophe.
