Where the Money Grows and Anatomy of the Bubble (Wiley Investment Classic)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Hugely popular when it was first published in 1911, and regarded as a classic ever since, Where the Money Grows is an honest, humorous, and richly perceptive tour of Wall Street and its enduring customs, institutions, and characters. The Street, according to author Garet Garrett, is a world populated not only by bulls and bears, but also by "wolves," "hoodoos," and "invisibles." You'll meet them all in this immensely entertaining and revealing book.
Also included is a scintillating article, "Anatomy of the Bubble," originally published in the Saturday Evening Post. In piercing prose, Garrett unmasks the "debt" bubble and displays uncanny prescience. Debt, it would seem, can be every bit as dangerous as manias and other "irrational exuberance."
The publisher, John Wiley & Sons
Where the Money Grows is a colorful chronicle of the ways in which money circulates in the markets, and of the diverse, devious, and dynamic characters in hot pursuit. With insights that remain brilliantly on target today, Where the Money Grows concisely captures the quirks, deceptions, idiosyncrasies, and downright craziness of the most famous street in the world. You'll walk down the "Hall of Delusions" and meet "The Trader," "The Hoodoo," "The Manipulator," and "The Wall Street Wolf," among others. Also included is a scintillating article, "Anatomy of the Bubble" in which Garrett unmasks the "debt" bubble and displays uncanny prescience.
