This seems Like an Interesting Read

This book called What Goes Up : The Uncensored History of Modern Wall Street as Told by the Bankers, Brokers, CEOs, and Scoundrels Who Made It Happen looks like it would be right up my alley. I like to read about history and I enjoy watching the stock market as well. It should be pretty entertaining. I'm just finishing Empire: The Rise and Demise of the British World Order and the Lessons for Global Power. It is a pretty good overview of the British Empire during the Vicotrian era.
