"Financial Reckoning Day"
by William Bonner, with Addison Wiggin

"'Financial Reckoning Day: Surviving the Soft Depression of the 21st Century' is an interesting, amusing blend of history and current events geared toward understanding markets, money, and the manipulations thereof. William Bonner and Addison Wiggin look back to show how bubbles are not new phenomena in the finance world, and take on other myopias many seem to have regarding markets. A very interesting myopia many libertarians may have is with Fed chairman Alan Greenspan; Bonner and Wiggin devote an entire fascinating chapter to demythologizing him as a 'gold bug' and friend of economic freedom."
