Beskrivelse af The Banker And The Bear
""The Banker and the Bear: The Story of a Corner in Lard"" is a novel written by Henry Kitchell Webster. The story takes place in the early 1900s in Chicago's financial district, where a young banker named John Mathison is determined to make a name for himself. He becomes involved in a scheme to corner the market on lard, with the help of a wealthy and cunning bear speculator named J. Ogden Staples. As the two men work together to manipulate the market and drive up the price of lard, they encounter a range of obstacles, including rival traders, corrupt politicians, and unexpected personal challenges. Along the way, Mathison and Staples must navigate the complex world of finance and learn to trust each other, even as their goals and motivations begin to diverge. Ultimately, ""The Banker and the Bear"" is a gripping story of ambition, greed, and the high-stakes world of commodity trading, told with wit, insight, and a keen eye for detail.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
