Book Description
Editorial Reviews
About the Author
Distinguished wit and bon vivant, novelist Richard Crissman has contributed to MONEY magazine and various publications of the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Potomac Institute. His offbeat novels are about money and what it does to people: the power, the self-indulgence and the glamour! He shares the secrets of making, keeping and managing vast fortunes.His characters are eccentric, foolish, and very human: nuts and nuggets. His plots are unexpected and as American as P. G. Wodehouse's plots were top-drawer British.Crissman and his elegant wife live in Southern California, very much part of the milieu of which he writes.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Tally Ho! Buy It!,
By Ginna G. (Arnold, MD USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tax Dodge: A Financial Caper that Changes the Lives of All Involved... (Paperback)
Greed leads to life and death conflicts in the Irish countryside. There are lots of great characters in this novel - good guys tainted with the gift of blarney, bad guys you love to hate and manipulative women who know how to get what they want. Crissman has a knack for letting us glimpse inside the head of his characters while maintaining a sporting pace. And for equine enthusiasts, there are lots of horses and riding scenes set in a historic hunting lodge. The more I read, the more I liked. Tally Ho! I give it 4 stars.
