St Mary's Books is proud to present this 1955 first edition of "The Great Crash 1929: A striking study of the greatest speculative boom in history and of the catastrophe which followed it" by J. K. Galbraith. Housed in its original dustjacket with red ink lettering and a black ink decorative border, this hardback book is bound in navy cloth with gold gilt lettering. Inside, one finds 186 pages of this classic of economics, where Galbraith argues the 1929 Wall Street Crash and the catastrophe that followed was driven by rampant speculation, unregulated markets, and collective delusion rather than being an unpredictable, random event. This copy is in very good condition - though the original dustjacket has slightly faded with age, it remains well-preserved, and the book itself is bright, clean and readable. "The Great Crash 1929" is looking for a new home and would make for the perfect gift for any economics enthusiast.
