Amazon.com Review: The Investor's Anthology: Original Ideas from the Industry's Greatest Minds is an enlightening collection of poignant observations from more than 50 respected individuals who have weighed in over the years on assorted financial matters. Compiled by Charles D. Ellis and James R. Vertin and grouped into related sections, its broad mixture of perspectives--represented by the inclusion of Hans Christian Andersen and Phinaeus T. Barnum alongside Benjamin Graham and Adam Smith--is highly instructive and quite entertaining.
Wonderful Book! I received this book as a gift and found it to be quite entertaining. Nice anthology of articles on investing, fincancial history, and business success in general. Very eclectic group of writers ranging from Benjamin Graham to P.T. Barnum (I have always found Barnum's "Rules for Success" to be invaluable). Very hard to put down once you have begun. Even harder not to finish the book a bit wiser.
Good Book. If only if you are an investor, and enjoy such books. This is the place to get it and read about this excellent book to help with Monetary Economic Thought.
