Description

Chicago finance novel: John Bagsbury under pressure from Sponley’s lard corner and the ruthless game of the Board of Trade. “Bear” means the market, not a forest animal. Business thriller of nerve and credit.

Author

Henry Kitchell Webster (1875–1932) was a Chicago novelist of business, manners, and the American deal. The Banker and the Bear is finance as adventure: corners, panics, and the comedy of men who think the market is a private weather. Two titles here. The pace is magazine-trained; the subject is money learning to talk.
