The foremost investment classic of all time-now presented in its original, illustrated format Unknown to most modern-day investors and traders who cherish Reminiscences of a Stock Operator as one of the most important investment books ever written, the material first appeared in the 1920s as a series of articles and illustrations in the Saturday Evening Post. Now, for the first time ever, this beloved classic is being made available in its original, illustrated format. Jesse Livermore won and lost tens of millions of dollars playing the stock and commodities markets during the early 1900s-at one point making the then astronomical sum of 10 million dollars in just one month of trading. In 1922, Edwin LeFevre began publishing his fictionalized account of Livermore's exploits in a series of 11 articles for the Saturday Evening Post, which appeared under the title "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator." Now, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, Illustrated Edition, combines those memorable illustrations with LeFevre's timeless investment advice-to recreate the look, feel, and message that was first published more than 80 years ago. This handsome coffee-table book combines for the first time in a single source, beautifully crafted reproductions of the original "Reminiscences of a Stock Operator" articles and artwork as they were initially found in the Saturday Evening Post. Reminiscences of a Stock Operator is among the most compelling and enduring pieces ever written on trading in the markets, and the new Illustrated Edition-brings this story to life like never before. Every investor can now treasure both the vintage art and timeless trading wisdom with this impressive new Illustrated Edition. Edwin LeFevre was trained as a mining engineer, but became a journalist at age 19. He produced eight books, including The Making of a Stockbroker, during his 53-year writing career. He is a celebrated finance author made famous for his fictionalized account of Jesse Livermore, which first appeared in the Saturday Evening Post in 1922. - Foreword
