Book Review: Reminiscences of a Stock Operator
I felt this book had some merit, but it was not a particularly enjoyable read:
- Published in 1923, and considered a Wall street Classic
- Based on the life of Jesse Livermore, but almost entirely devoid of his personal life.
- Starts out terribly boring – following his trades through the bucket shops is painful – though it picks up pace as he moves through his career
