About this book
William C. Van Antwerp, a busy stockbroker, wrote this defence of the Stock Exchange for readers who judge it by the talk of demagogues rather than facts. He explains what an exchange is for, the uses and abuses of speculation, short selling and the ties between banks and brokers, and he treats the crisis of 1907. Further chapters compare the London Stock Exchange and the Paris Bourse with the American one, and an appendix gives the report of the Hughes Commission. He notes that the Exchange authorities neither prepared nor endorsed the work.
