Practical Investing.

First edition. In the words of a contemporary reviewer, this book “is most serviceable and has the lasting virtue of dealing with a technical subject in a readable manner” (Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, p. 245). Concise and accessible, this early work of investment advice for the general reader remains just as it was described in 1915, that rare thing, a readable book about stocks and bonds.
