I think the book you are talking about is "The Real Crash: America's Coming Bankruptcy---How to Save Yourself and Your Country". The author Peter Schiff is wrote "Crash Proof" before recession predicted an imminent decline in the value of the American dollar and advised readers to invest in foreign securities and precious metals.

Also, 'Diary of a Very Bad Year: Confessions of an Anonymous Hedge Fund Manager,' explains a lot of what happened, and although I didn't understand 100% of what the author was writing about, I'm so much wiser about what goes on in our financial markets. And if you're someone who's played the market and thought a lot about Wall Street, brokers, stocks, bonds and such, what you 'imagined' was going on, well, this book tells you, was actually going on.
BTW @regan, I can't wait for 'Fools Gold' by Gillian Tett to show up at my Phoenix Half Price Book store.
