Reminiscences of a Stock Operator (en.wikipedia.org)

I was given this book by my father who spent his life in finance. It was an entertaining read - even for someone that knows nothing about the finance world and simply DCA's the indexes.

Highly recommend it.

The book was originally published in 1923 and is available on Project Gutenberg[1] for free.
