About the Author

John Train founded Train, Smith Investment Counsel and is chairman of Montrose Advisors, both of New York. His bestselling books on investing include The Craft of Investing, The Money Masters, The New Money Masters, and The Midas Touch. He has written several hundred columns for The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, The New York Times, Harvard Magazine, The Financial Times, and other publications. He is a part-time director of two independent government agencies reporting directly to Congress and of several emerging market mutual funds. He lives in New York, spends summers in Maine, and travels frequently to Europe, Asia, and South America.

From Library Journal

As Train says, bad books on investing make it sound easy. This is not a bad book. Train (The New Money Masters, HarperCollins, 1990) explains that stock investing requires being thorough, tough-minded, and flexible. He covers different investment styles, market cycles, when to buy and sell, managing a portfolio, and even handling estate matters, all from his own unique experiences as investor and investment consultant. Some of the recommendations may be beyond the average investor (such as having one reliable local source of information in a foreign country), as may some of the analysis-e.g., "doing a spreadsheet for each company you own." But in general the work is accessible, realistic, and filled with amusing snippets. You can make something of yourself, argues Train, "if you are always honest, energetic, and careful." May it be so. Recommended.
