A Cultural History
Steve Fraser New Paperback
Postscript summary
From Daniel Drew’s ‘stunning feats of insider trading and book-cooking’ during the American Civil War to a proposed futures market in terrorism in 2003, Fraser’s history of America’s financial district is rife with adventurers and robber barons.
Product information
Full publisher description
Steve Fraser's epic book is a passionate, critical history of the most powerful financial district in the world. It can also be read as the story of capitalism in America, and of the great turning points in American history, but it is much more than a narrative of politics and economics.
