Geschichte der Krise

A superb analytical account of the unfolding of the economic crisis that followed the Wall Street crash of 1929. This book is now, for the first time, available in an English edition under the title: "Financial Contagion: Lessons from the Great Depression". It is a worthy addition to the accessible literature of that period - with one great and unique virtue: it is contemporaneous in its writing and its viewpoint by a master of the craft of demystifying complex events.
