Book Description
Analyzes the practices of the outdoor securities market of lower Manhattan from the late 18th century to 1921 and shows the impact of government investigation and legislation on Wall Street.
From the Publisher
This historical account is one of the most dramatic success stories in the nation's business history. It chronicles the rise of a much maligned, unstructured group of men known as the curbstone brokers--because that is where they conducted their business--to a powerful and respected securities market, which in 1953 became the American Stock Exchange.
