Ten of the best books on finance

At the Independent, Samuel Muston complied a list of ten of "the finest - and most readable - books about Big Money," including:
THE GREAT CRASH BY J K GALBRAITH

Galbraith's account of events leading up to the 1929 financial collapse has enjoyed a revival, and rightly so. It remains one of the best economics books ever written for the general reader.
Read about another book on the list.

The Great Crash, 1929 also appears on David Charters's top ten list of books about bankers.

Also see Duff McDonald's five best list of books on finance during times of trouble and Martin Mayer's five best list of book on financial meltdowns.
