Speculation built empires—and destroyed them just as fast. In Burn the Ledger, David G. Stone traces the blood trail of market manias through the men who lit the match. From stockjobbers in powdered wigs to turtlenecked tech gods, this audiobook unearths the thrilling, often reckless, and always revealing stories of the risk-takers who pushed markets to the brink. These weren’t just investors—they were manipulators, visionaries, and con artists who thought the rules didn’t apply to them.
