AMAZING LIFE OF JESSE

Richard Smitten. Jesse Livermore is considered by many on Wall
Street to be one of the greatest stock market trader who ever
lived. This book, which we consider a companion book to

Livermore's life. It was written after interviews with
Livermore survivors and witnesses to the events which took place
during his life. Not only a Wall Street classic and a very
enjoyable read, but we consider it required reading for anyone
that trades the markets. One of our most highly recommended
books! ISBN 0-9343-8059-7. Rating:
