Acerca de este título
In the high-stakes world of early 20th-century finance, two ambitious men thought they could outsmart the market—and almost brought down the entire U.S. economy in the process.
Two Idiots, One Crash is the gripping, darkly funny, and surprisingly timely true story of Augustus Heinze and Charles Morse—two overconfident schemers who leveraged banks, backdoor deals, and bravado in a financial system built more on personality than policy. In 1907, their reckless gambles triggered a full-scale panic that toppled banks, destroyed fortunes, and sent Wall Street into chaos.
With the U.S. banking system teetering on collapse, the government was powerless, the public was terrified, and only one man—J.P. Morgan—stood between America and total economic ruin.
Packed with unforgettable characters, backroom intrigue, and astonishing parallels to modern financial crises, Two Idiots, One Crash exposes how ego, ignorance, and unchecked ambition nearly tanked the U.S. economy—and how their spectacular failure helped give birth to the Federal Reserve.
If you like fast-paced financial history, true crime-style narratives, and cautionary tales with bite, this is your next must-listen.
