On Thursday, October 24, 1929, "the great bull market" of the 1920s crashed. Scholars continue to debate what caused the panic that prompted irrational investors to Sell! Sell! Sell! This anthology examines the economic climate that led to the Crash, the frenzy and panic of the Crash itself, and the impact the Crash had on investors and the future of stock speculation.
