He is one of the world's most accomplished figures of modern finance. As chairman and chief executive officer of Citigroup, Sanford Sandy Weill has become an American legend, a banking visionary whose innovativeness, opportunism, and even fear drove him from the lowliest jobs on Wall Street to its most commanding heights. In this unprecedented biography, acclaimed Wall Street Journal reporter Monica Langley provides a compelling account of Weill's rise to power. What emerges is a portrait of a man who is as vital and as volatile as the market itself.
Tearing Down the Walls tells the riveting inside story of how a Jewish boy from Brooklyn's back alleys overcame incredible odds and deep-seated prejudices to transform the financial-services industry as we know it today.
Using nearly five hundred firsthand interviews with key players in Weill's life and career -- including Weill himself -- Langley brilliantly chronicles not only his success and scandals but also the shadows of his hidden self: his father's abandonment and his loving marriage; his tyrannical rages as well as his tearful regrets; his fierce sense of loyalty and his ruthless elimination of potential rivals. By highlighting in new and startling detail one man's life in a narrative as richly textured and compelling as a novel, Tearing Down the Walls provides the historical context of the dramatic changes not only in business but also in American society in the last half century.

Size DOESNT matter!
My senior dogs sight is getting bad due to age and diabetes so I opted to try a scented toy for him. Love this product because its squeaky AND scented - would prefer variety of scents though. I ordered a small and this thing is half the size of my dog! It does have a zipper so you can remove the scent or squeaker if you want

Great for teething pup!
I wanted to share my positive experience with the teething toys I recently purchased. As soon as I gave one to my puppy, he immediately started playing with it, running around and rolling with it like a long-lost toy. My puppy is 3.1 lbs and currently teething, and it was a challenge to find small teething toys with variety. I was told he was teething when I got him, and although I have many other toys, I didn't have any specifically for teething. These toys have been a great solution. He not only enjoys the rubbery parts but also the different textures and the ribbon tail. He loves swinging them around and whipping them from side to side when he's on his back. He played with two of the toys for 20 minutes straight, only pausing to drink water and relieve himself. He was completely focused, entertained, and happy, which is a significant improvement in his teething discomfort over the past few days. I'm so glad I found these on Amazon, and because they are the perfect size, I'm confident they will last and be durable throughout his teething phase. The only thing he's been more fixated on is me, which speaks volumes about how much he enjoys these toys.

She loves them!
These are perfect for my teething puppy! She likes to play with a couple of them more than the others, but they are very durable and cute.. the strings on stuff she already untied and played with those as well. Good purchase, I think these will last a long time!
