The snap and crackle of early 20th century journalism. Enduring lessons about the market emerge plainly from personal experiences. Glimpses of long-ago market players, the likes of which are no longer to be seen.

This book should be obligatory reading for anyone who works in financial markets. The rationale behind anti bucket shop legislation, and its application to modern financial instruments, becomes clear as you learn how these establishments functioned. From a behavioural finance perspective this is also a fascinating and very early look at the pitfalls of investing.
