The 1901 investment masterpiece from the bestselling author of Reminiscences of a Stock Operator. The rarest and most-prized work published by Edwin Lefvre, Wall Street Stories is a delightful literary romp through the habits and customs of 19th century Wall Street. Now, this timeless work is being reissued in a fantastically lush new edition befitting this masterwork. In his distinctive and humorous style, Lefvre gives us a glimpse into the gilded age of Wall Street through fictional characters who are actually thinly veiled portraits of well-known investing personalities, such as James R. Keene, Elverton R. Chapman, Roswell Pettibone Flower, and Daniel Drew. With this republished edition, all those who read Lefvre's Reminiscences of a Stock Operator (Wiley, 2006) will be introduced to the work that launched Lefevre's literary career. From the Back Cover Timeless Wit and Wisdom on the Birth of Modern Wall Street “Lefevre's lessons on this subject are state of the art-and he provides lots more fun at the same time. His stories are a delight.” -Peter L. Bernstein, author, Capital Ideas Evolving and Against the Gods “Wall Street Stories is as relevant today as they were over a century ago. Lefevre's descriptions of investor behavior are now the standard lessons of behavioral finance.” --Burton G. Malkiel, author, A Random Walk Down Wall Street, 9th Edition “Wall Street Stories, Edwin Lefevre's collection of masterful short stories, is a box of rare financial bon bons; I guarantee you won't be able to eat just one.” --William Bernstein, author, The Four Pillars of Investing and Birth of Plenty “More than a century after he first crafted these insightful parables of fear and greed, Edwin Lefevre's Wall Street Storie continues to furnish investment lessons and wisdom that are as priceless, timeless, and peerless today as they were when American capital markets first emerged onto the global stage.” -David M. Darst, author, The Art of Asset Allocation, Second Edition “Markets are driven by the law of supply and demand and human nature (hope, fear, and greed) which doesn't change. Wall Street Stories tells you about stock pools and human psychology on daily display.” -William J. O'Neil, Chairman & Founder, Investor's Business Daily
