"In this book, John Brooks - who was one of the most elegant of most business writers - perfectly attracts the flavor of one of history's best-known financial dramas: the 1929 crash and its aftershocks. It's filled with parallels and parables for the present day audience." - From Foreword by Richard Lambert Editor-in-Chief, The Financial Times Once in Golconda is a dramatic chronicle of the breathtaking rise, devastating street to redemption, and painstaking rebirth of Wall Avenue in the years between your wars. Concentrating on the lives and fortunes of a few of the era's most memorable merchants, bankers, boosters, and frauds, John Brooks brings to brilliant life all the ruthlessness, greed, and reckless euphoria of the '20s bull market, the desperation of the days leading up to the crash of '29, and the bitterness of the years that followed.
