But behind the flashing ticker tapes and panicked\ntraders, another drama unfolded—one of visionaries and fraudsters, titans and\ndreamers, euphoria and ruin.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWith unparalleled access to historical records and newly uncovered documents,\nNew York Times bestselling author Andrew Ross Sorkin takes readers inside the\nchaos of the crash, behind the scenes of a raging battle between Wall Street\nand Washington and the larger-than-life characters whose ambition and naivety\nin an endless boom led to wreckage. The dizzying highs and brutal lows of this\nera eerily mirror today’s world—where markets soar, political tensions mount,\nand the fight over financial influence plays out once again.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is not just a story about money. 1929 is a tale of power, psychology, and\nthe seductive illusion that “this time is different.” It’s about disregarded\nalarm bells, financiers who fell from grace, and skeptics who saw the crash\ncoming—only to be dismissed until it was too late.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHailed as a landmark book, Too Big to Fail reimagined how financial crises are\ntold. Now, with 1929, Sorkin delivers an immersive, electrifying account of the\nmost pivotal market collapse of all time—with lessons that remain as urgent as\never. More than just a history, 1929 is a crucial blueprint for understanding\nthe cycles of speculation, the forces that drive financial upheaval, and the\nwarning signs we ignore at our peril.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n*The Atlantic Monthly\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrew Ross Sorkin\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eToo\nBig to Fail\u003c\/i\u003e, which won the Gerald Loeb Award for Best Business Book, and\nwas shortlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize and the \u003ci\u003eFinancial Times\u003c\/i\u003e Business\nBook of the Year Award.
