An in-depth analysis of the events of 1929 that led to the Great Depression. Mr Ross Sorkin does a great job of making the complicated narrative, with all its parts, easy to understand by creating a key list of characters in order to allow the reader to understand the sometimes complicated financial maneuvering. I enjoyed the read up until part 2 of the book, that is where i felt too much time was spent on the Mitchell trial and on the Morgan Senate hearings. the fast quick narrative style that was seen in the first section of the book seemed to languish a bit in the second part due to the play-by-play that was given. I learned a great many things and felt that I now have a better understanding of the market crash and its aftermath and effects. .

Great writer but I really could not get into this book Thanks for the opportunity to read but it was just not for me. Good Luck with the boo.
