Wall Street Stories

"The only book about Wall Street that hits the mark right on the nose,"—wrote The New York Sun. "Stories of Wall Street" is a collection of 8 stories in which the author vividly and credibly conveys the atmosphere of the stock exchange at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Lefevre was a successful financial journalist and worked closely with the Wall Street public, so the plots of his stories are based on real events. At the same time, the prototypes of the characters are famous financiers of that era of the caliber of Buffett and Soros. First published in 1901, the book has gone through many reprints and rightfully remains a classic of stock-exchange literature.
