Rather than going into detailed analysis of trading strategies and processes of the time, the book instead presents the ‘what‘, ‘where‘, ‘who’ and ‘how’ of the stock market operation, outlining the ways in which market participants negotiated trades, where these took place, and all the different types of securities that were traded. This engaging book will be of interest to financial and economic historians, as well as scholars in the humanities searching for a non-technical guide to the formation of the modern stock market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp class=\"x_MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"markhodxkhj0h\" data-markjs=\"true\" data-ogac=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogsb=\"\" data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"\u003eKent\u003c\/span\u003e McKeever \u003c\/strong\u003ewas the Former Director of the Arthur W.
