In Dethroning the King, Julie MacIntosh explores the largely unreported 2008 takeover of Anheuser-Busch by the Belgian-controlled InBev, set against the backdrop of a global economic crisis. The audiobook examines the internal missteps of the Busch family and the company's board, highlighting how powerful forces behind the scenes led to the company's unexpected capitulation. It offers a compelling look at a pivotal moment in American business history with broader reflections on national economic and political dynamics.
