Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Golden Calf, Vol. 1 of 3: Or, Prodigality and Speculation in the Nineteenth Century On the seventh of last month (September, 1849) a leading article appeared in the Times journal, recommending a work to be written, which was to be "of eminent advantage to the public," and for which "a very rapid sale" was predicted. The writer went on to say - "we would take any young author in hand who is burning with a noble thirst for literary distinction, and give him the plan of a work, which, if well executed, would carry his name into every gentleman´s library and every merchant´s counting-house in the three kingdoms. The subject should be ´Railway Frauds."´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
