In 1844, a young man from Bavaria stepped off a boat and arrived in New York City. His name was Henry Lehman, and he and his brothers began an American dynasty. 163 years later, the firm they founded - Lehman Brothers - collapsed into bankruptcy and triggered the largest financial crisis in history.Following the triumphs and spectacular decline of one of the world's biggest companies, The Lehman Trilogy is a story of fathers, sons and grandsons who built an American Dream and watched it slip away.
