      A successful, non-professional speculator tells how Wall Street paid back to him more than he entrusted to it. This book is both a personal history and a valuable study of crowd reaction to market fluctuations - the adventures of an "outsider" who found the greatest enemies to stock market success. He shows you how to recognize them and how to avoid becoming a loser because of them. "Vanity", "Greed" and "The Will to Believe" are just a few of eight instructive chapters. Completely non-technical; anyone can understand and act on this book about money-making stocks. First published in 1930. Paperback. 177 pages.
