Speculation Across The Ages | Devil Take The Hindmost (Edward Chancellor) BOOK REVIEW

Mere Mortals Book Reviews

All of the fun of gambling without any of the boring math!
'Devil Take The Hindmost' by Edward Chancellor is a series of snapshots across history of financial speculation (so called bubbles). Presents not only the instances of craziness but also the feeling of the time (notable periods being The Tulip Mania, South Sea Bubble and The Gilded Age amongst others). Not super heavy on statistics; more so newspaper articles, quotes from notable people and behavioural reactions of the people. Chapters are broken into individual time periods and you won't see any charts or graphs either.
