Book Reviews of Manias, Panics, and Crashes: A History of Financial Crises (Wiley Investment Classics)

Book Review: History Really Does Ryme
Summary: 5 Stars

I am always amazed how often history repeats itself and how quickly we forget. This book provides an amazing history of the credit markets for the last several hundred years. This should have been required reading for government officials and banks executives.

Summary of Manias, Panics, and Crashes: A History of Financial Crises (Wiley Investment Classics)
