Praise for The Go–Go Years
"Those for whom the stock market is mostly a spectator sport will relish the book′s verve, color, and memorable one–liners."
New York Review of Books
"Please don′t take The Go–Go Years too much for granted: as effortlessly as it seems to fly, it is nonetheless an unusually complex and thoughtful work of social history."
New York Times
"Brooks′s great contribution is his synthesis of all the elements that made the 1960s the most volatile in Wall Street history . . . and making so much material easily digestible for the uninitiated."
Publishers Weekly
"Brooks . . . is about the only writer around who combines a thorough knowledge of finance with the ability to perceive behind the dance of numbers ′high, pure, moral melodrama on the themes of possession, domination, and belonging.′"
