Chronicling the Bear Stearns collapse

Casey Common of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune offers his analysis of "Street Fighters," a new book which chronicles the demise of Bear Stearns.
Wall Street Journal reporter Kate Kelly wrote the book after chronicling the Bear Stearns' dismantling in a three-part series for the paper.
That series served as the book's foundation.
Common says the book is "tightly written" and that it "zooms in on the three days leading to the fire sale of Bear Stearns to J.P. Morgan Chase & Co."
