Hi,
what book (books) would you consider a must-read for anybody who is planning to buy a distressed business and try to bring it back to life?
(I am aware that real methods can come just from experience, but any sources that will provide some insight on the restructuring process would be of great help.)
Thank you!

Moyer's Distressed Debt Strategies
HL's RX Case Study
Fantastic thanks! I actually came across DD Strategies before, but the price seemed too high to just "try it out"...
PM me your email. I will send you Moyer's DD Strategies.
If you can't spend $150 to learn about distressed, I wouldn't trust you with a turnaround.
Margin of Safety
Thanks but that looks like a book for investment in terms of value investing ala Buffett.
I meant smth more of a guide "You bought a bankrupt company, now what?" type of book. Where the author would outline restructuring strategies, what to cut first, what to expand, how to structure such a deal etc...
I've got a long list of books i've read on the subject. But it's just a list, PM me with specifics and I'll help you out. Is this theoretical, are you experience in turnarounds and just looking for the distressed M&A part, do you have a target, size, industry, do you understand debt restructuring, etc.
Oops, I missed your final comment. Start with Don Bibeault's Corporate Turnaround. It's THE definitive book on the subject. Join the TMA while you're at it. www.turnaround.org
If you have a real deal and looking for a partner, PM me.
