"A thorough retelling of a critical--though often overlooked--aspect of U.S. history."--The Wall Street Journal
"A quick-reading history of the United States as told through the doings of bankers and brokers."--The Washington Post
"Geisst has produced a sweeping history of Wall Street, from its inception as an outdoor market to its current status of global financial center.... This lively narrative is a good survey of American economic history that puts Wall Street at the forefront."--History
"Concluding with the 2009 great recession, Geisst observes, 'As the markets meandered during the Great Recession, it became clear that Wall Street had little intention of reforming unless forced to do so by Washington.' Some things never change, as we learn in this excellent book for financial-history enthusiasts." --Booklist
"Geisst is author of several works, including Collateral Damaged: The Marketing of Consumer Debt to America and TheLast Partnerships: Inside the Great Wall Street Dynasties." --CHOICE
"In general, Wall Street is an informative and easy read, emphasizing colorful figures and suspensful anecdotes while providing the basic facts and noting key turning points."--Journal of Economic Literature
